Despite suffering what appeared to be a season-ending ankle injury in October, junior wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could play for the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game against the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes on Monday.
According to ESPN's Chris Low, Alabama head coach Nick Saban said Tuesday: "He's been running, but we need to see him in practice. Our medical people will evaluate him as the week goes on and make a decision from there. He wants to play and has been working hard to get back.
