Injured Alabama defender tweets he’ll be ready for Saturday’s opener

Alabama looks like it will be getting a talented pass-rusher back in time for the season-opener at Missouri.

Earlier this month, Nick Saban revealed that defensive lineman Christian Barmore would be out for a bit with a knee injury. On Wednesday, Saban had a positive update that Brown would likely be back in practice soon. Now, Barmore is sharing that he’ll be ready on Sept. 26.

“Trust and believe I will be ready 😈,” Barmore tweeted Sunday.

Barmore is coming off a 2019 season where he recorded 26 total tackles, including 6 for a loss and 2 sacks. He also had 2 passes batted down.

Vegas has the Crimson Tide favored by 22 points heading into Columbia, Missouri. The game is set for a 6 p.m. CT kickoff, airing on ESPN.

Trust and believe I will be ready😈
