A few changes to Alabama's football staff were announced back of Feb. 16. Brent Key was added as an interior offensive line coach as Mario Cristobal moved over to lead the tackles and tight ends.

Bobby Williams moved to an off-the-field job, but the news release didn't mention a replacement for his duties as the special teams coach.

Nick Saban had the answer to that question after Alabama's first spring practice Friday.

Burton Burns, who enters his 10th season on the Crimson Tide staff, will add special teams coaching to his assignment coaching the running backs.
