Nick Saban Hopeful Bryce Young Will Return from Injury for Alabama vs. Tennessee

Alabama head coach Nick Saban provided a positive update on quarterback Bryce Young ahead of Saturday's highly anticipated matchup with Tennessee.

"Hopefully we're going to try to get him ready to play this week," Saban told reporters Monday. "But this is something nobody can predict how quickly he'll get an opportunity to do what he needs to do."

Young suffered a shoulder injury in the Oct. 1 win over Arkansas, causing him to miss Saturday's narrow victory against Texas A&M. If he is unable to play next game, redshirt freshman Jalen Milroe will get another start on the road against the sixth-ranked Volunteers.
