Jordan Battle highlights Brian Branch, Tide receivers ahead of season opener

He recorded his first career interception at Mercedes-Benz Stadium late in Alabama’s 2019 season opener versus Duke, and Jordan Battle is about to make his return to the venue.

Battle, a native of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., is a junior for the Crimson Tide and a leader in the secondary. After a great tenure at St. Thomas Aquinas High School, he was heavily recruited by Miami. The South Florida man chose Alabama as a four-star in 2019 and has not looked back. Battle has played in 26 games — including 17 starts — and started all 13 matchups last season.
