Bryce Young stat shows how much Alabama misses Jameson Williams, John Metchie III
By Ethan Stone

As surprising as it may seem, Bryce Young has yet to complete a pass that travelled over 15 yards in the air.
That seems odd for a player who has shown capability to hit the deep shot regularly during his career, but its not necessarily his fault. For context, Young is the only quarterback in the SEC that has not accomplished this.
That seems impossible.
?Crazy Stat of the Day?
Bryce Young is the ONLY SEC QB without a single completion on a throw that traveled 15+ air yds ?
9 SEC QBs have completed 6+.
He is 0-6, & only 2 of those att were o/s the hashes.
Last year Bryce was 10th Nationally w/ 49 comp of 15+ air yds.

Perhaps even more concerning from Rodgers’ stat above is that he has attempted such passes. The Crimson Tide have receivers that should be able to get this done, but haven’t yet when the moment comes.
Jameson Williams and John Metchie III ate those plays up. Alabama needs to see its starting rotation haul in more of those passes soon after a rough performance against Texas in Week 2.
