The scar is thick and stretches from the inner part of Anfernee Jennings' knee down through his calf.

It's an unusual spot for a post-surgery scar, but that's because this wasn't a normal injury or surgery.

For those who know the full extent of the Alabama defensive star's Sugar Bowl injury, it's amazing he's already back and ready to play when the Crimson Tide opens its season against Louisville Saturday night.

Until now, all that was known publicly is that Jennings had a knee injury and underwent surgery. It was far from that simple, though.

This situation could have played out much worse if not for the work of Alabama's medical staff.
