Sophomore Tony Brown has been a regular with Alabama's first-team defense, the one cornerback consistently lined up with the first-team group during portions of spring practice open to the media with senior Cyrus Jones sidelined following offseason hip surgery.
Redshirt freshman Marlon Humphrey and redshirt sophomore Anthony Averett have been among the players rotating with the first-team unit at the cornerback spot opposite Brown, part of a four-man group consisting of junior Eddie Jackson, senior Bradley Sylve, Humphrey and Averett vying for playing time along with Brown and Jones.
