Alabama football suddenly faces a conundrum at running back. Jam Miller, who was having the best camp of his Crimson Tide career and was the obvious starter for a second season in a row, dislocated his collarbone during UA’s second scrimmage and is now out indefinitely.

At that same press conference, DeBoer revealed right guard Jaeden Roberts has a concussion and defensive lineman James Smith was working his way back from an injury, the specifics of which were not shared by the Crimson Tide coach. Smith has since returned to practice. Roberts remains in concussion protocol.
