Report: 2 Alabama starters expected to be limited during fall camp following offseason surgeries

Alabama kicks off fall camp on Friday, Aug. 2, but it will do so with a couple of key players limited.

Per AL.com’s Matt Zenitz, two Alabama starters — DE LaBryan Ray and TE Miller Forristall — won’t be at full strength for the start of camp.

Zenitz reveals that both players had to get surgery for injuries sustained earlier this summer and won’t be at 100% until later this month:

The report does say both players are expected to be ready to go when the Tide take on Duke to start the regular season on Aug. 31.

Both Ray and Forristall were named to the media’s third-team All-SEC squad during SEC Media Days last month.
