Wide receiver Kendrick Law of Alabama was downgraded to out for Saturday afternoon’s game against Vanderbilt on Friday night.
Law’s availability was deemed uncertain on Wednesday and Thursday following his lower-body injury sustained during last Saturday’s victory over Georgia. As mandated by SEC regulations, the Tide updated Law’s status on Friday night’s availability report following the team’s trip to Nashville.
Law began this season’s first three games as a third wide receiver behind Ryan Williams and Germie Bernard. Before getting hurt against Georgia, he came off the bench. Law has two touchdowns this season on two receptions for 41 yards and two rushes for 6 yards. On two returns, the junior leads Alabama in kick return yards with 77. This season, the other two Tide players to return kickoffs are Cole Adams and Ryan Williams.
With Law out, Cole Adams, Kobe Prentice, and Emmanuel Henderson may get increased action at wide receiver behind Williams and Bernard, who are expected to start.
Linebacker Justin Jefferson remains probable for Saturday’s game and was the only other player included on Friday’s availability report.
