Alabama held its 14th spring football practice Thursday afternoon, leaving only Saturday’s A-Day game inside Bryant-Denny Stadium to wrap up the 15 workouts allotted by the NCAA.
“No one ever has a bad recruiting class, and no one ever has a bad spring,” Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said Thursday night in a news conference. “We had a good spring and had a lot of guys get better. We were also fortunate to get through it with a minimal amount of injuries.
“I really like the competitive character of this team.”
Among those sitting out A-Day will be redshirt junior outside linebacker Terrell Lewis, junior right tackle Jedrick Wills and junior tight end Major Tennison. Wills injured an ankle last week but it will not require surgery, Saban said, while Tennison is in concussion protocol.
Lewis tore an ACL last year during summer workouts.
