- Alabama football LB Jah-Marien Latham out for year with neck injury, Kalen DeBoer says
Alabama football will be without Jah-Marien Latham for the rest of the season, Kalen DeBoer announced Monday, Sept. 29.
Latham suffered a neck injury in practice before Alabama 's 24-21 win against Georgia. DeBoer said Latham "will make a full recovery," but will miss the rest of the season.
DeBoer said he hasn't discussed a medical redshirt with Latham.
"We haven't gone down that road yet," DeBoer said.
Latham, per DeBoer, has returned to the Alabama football facilities and has been around players.
Alabama will also be without Wolf linebacker Qua Russaw for "an extended period" with a broken foot.
Alabama will kick off against Vanderbilt at 2:30 p.m. CT Saturday.
