He has spoken to Jaylen Waddle since his injury, but now he is prepared to play for his teammate.
Slade Bolden never wanted his opportunity to come like this; however, he is prepared to show the college football world his versatility and big-play abilities at wide receiver. Regardless of him not being the caliber of player that Waddle is, Nick Saban is not placing any expectations on the redshirt sophomore. Two things Alabama fans need to know about the Louisiana native are that he is a gamer and he plays with a lot of effort.
