Alabama Redshirt Freshman WR ‘Dodged a Lot of Bullets’ After Injury Versus South Florida

What Happened?

Alabama redshirt freshman wide receiver Kendrick Law suffered an injury during the second quarter of the Crimson Tide's 31-10 win over South Florida on Saturday. Law was injured on a tackle by South Florida safety Ronnie Hoggins and was helped off the field by Alabama's medical staff.

The Injury

Law's injury was initially feared to be serious due to the way he landed on his head and neck. A source told Al.com that Law "dodged a lot of bullets" after the injury and that the initial tests "came back good".

Alabama head coach Nick Saban said after the game that Law is "day-to-day" and that the team will know more about his status later this week.

Law's Role

Law has been a key contributor for Alabama this season, starting the first two games of the season and catching four passes for 45 yards. He is expected to play a major role in Alabama's offense this season, especially with the departure of Jameson Williams to the NFL.

Recovery

It is unclear how long Law will be out with the injury. However, the fact that the initial tests "came back good" is a good sign. Alabama will likely be cautious with Law's recovery, given his importance to the team.
