Alabama football will be without one of its veteran defensive linemen for a while.
Justin Eboigbe, a senior from Forest Park, Ga., did not play last week versus Arkansas.
On Monday, Coach Nick Saban told reporters that Eboigbe has a neck injury. The Crimson Tide has specialists looking at the former four-star defensive end to ensure the precautions are managed correctly. Alabama will not play Eboigbe until the best plan of action is available. His absence allows two players to get more time on the field. Jamil Burroughs and Jah-Marien Latham are the next guys up.
