Alabama's spring game will provide first look at Jalen Hurts' development

Jalen Hurts amassed 3,734 total yards, 36 touchdowns and a 14-1 record at Alabama last season, becoming the first true freshman to win SEC Offensive Player of the Year since Georgia's Herschel Walker in the early 1980s.

Hurts was nothing short of a revelation for the Crimson Tide, but in many ways the fleet-footed quarterback from Channelview, Texas, wasn’t everything he could have been.

You see, it wasn’t a coincidence that he struggled to throw from the pocket late in the season.
