Alabama RB getting stronger at the right time to start second half of Crimson Tide’s season

Alabama football has a one, two punch at running back that is averaging over six yards per carry and combine for 12 of the Crimson Tide’s 28 rushing touchdowns.

Fans want more of Justice Haynes and Jam Miller, but it is good to see another back getting stronger at the right time.

Richard Young, a former five-star, has battled through some injuries as a second-year player. A native Floridian, he came in Alabama’s 2023 recruiting class with Haynes. The 5-foot-11, 216-pounder grew in physicality in the spring, recording a touchdown and showing improvement in pass protection on A-Day.
