Nick Saban provides update on injured WR DeVonta Smith
The Alabama Crimson Tide took care of business against Mizzou last weekend, but they got a little banged up in the process.
In addition to QB Tua Tagovailoa suffering a knee injury, several other players, including WR DeVonta Smith, were banged up.
On Wednesday evening, coach Nick Saban discussed Smith’s injury and said he’s questionable for this weekend’s game at Tennessee:
Nick Saban again says WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) is the only player questionable for the Tennessee game. Said he hasn't been able to practice this week.

Smith had four catches for 100 yards and a touchdown against the Tigers before exiting, and has put up 409 yards and three scores so far this year.
It sounds like there’s still a chance he could play this weekend, but the Tide may want to give him the week off so that he can rest even more during next weekend’s bye.
