The University of Alabama football team has some players to get banged up in its victory over LSU.
Jaeden Roberts, a redshirt junior offensive lineman, was one of them. The Houston (Texas) native suffered a lower body injury versus the Tigers at right guard. He had to be helped off the field by the training staff as Geno VanDeMark replaced him.
The 6-foot-5, 310-pounder played in 11 games last season with eight starts and started all nine games this year. Roberts could have returned to action, but the coaching staff chose to keep him out. His mother, Twanisha Roberts, updated his status on X — letting the Alabama fan base know he is okay.
