Alphonse Taylor has still not been cleared to play due to lingering symptoms from a concussion he sustained against Arkansas on Oct. 8, Alabama coach Nick Saban said Wednesday during the SEC coaches teleconference.

The senior right guard was dressed out for practice Tuesday but was held out of non-contact drills.

“These are things you kind of got to go through day-by-day and we just have to see how he progresses,” Saban said. “We’re not really making any predictions. But I can tell you we won’t put him on the field until the medical staff feels he is totally OK to be out there.”

Sophomore Lester Cotton has filled in at right guard for the Crimson Tide, which hasn’t experienced any drop-off in production in Taylor’s absence.
