Jalen Milroe's Health Addressed by Fellow Team Leader After Injury Rumors

The Alabama program is experiencing something that they are not accustomed to as of recent years, multiple regular season losses.

The Tide would fall once again in Neyland Stadium to Tennessee, which marks their second straight loss in that stadium with the previous loss coming in 2022. The implications of this game were massive not only towards a possible SEC Championship appearance, but also the College Football Playoff.

Alabama fans have begun to grow restless towards the team and the coaching staff, with some even asking for the firing of Kalen DeBoer and his staff. Alabama has not endured a regular season with multiple losses since 2007 .

Now, the margin for error for the Tide's remaining schedule is tremendous. Another loss is a for-sure elimination from playoff contention, but there's still a little hope left if chaos ensues.

DeBoer made comments on Sunday that sparked some concern in fans.

"Don't lose belief in these guys because there's a lot of guys making big sacrifices in ways that you'll never know," DeBoer said. "Because they keep plugging away... They're working hard and they have a lot of pride in who they are individually and who we are as Alabama.

These comments created concerns, and rumors of potential injuries to star players began swirling all over social media. Star offensive lineman Tyler Booker joined The Next Round on Monday and was questioned about this comment , specifically about his quarterback, Jalen Milroe, and if Milroe is experiencing some kind of injury.

“Jalen Milroe is 100%," Booker said. He would go on to reiterate and answer the question further. “I think I answered that a little bit too quickly. Nobody is ever going to be 100%. I’m hurting right now. Playing football in the SEC, you’re never going to be 100%. What I meant to say is Jalen is going to be able to do everything in his power to help us win that game.”

Injuries to a team are always a massive concern to coaching staff and fans nationwide. No news of a Milroe injury has surfaced just yet, but the reassurance from the star lineman should help ease Tide fans' mind as they prepare for their homecoming matchup against Missouri.
