Coleman-Williams is one of Alabama‘s best overall playmakers along with Lotzeir Brooks. He caught 2 passes for 33 yards before exiting this game just before halftime.
If Coleman-Williams did indeed suffer a significant injury, it would be a major loss for Alabama’s passing attack. Alabama quarterback Keelon Russell has leaned on Coleman-Williams throughout the season. The junior wide receiver entered this week with 20 receptions for 376 yards and 4 touchdowns (team-high).
With Coleman-Williams sidelined, Brooks and Rico Scott will likely see increased usage in the passing game along with backup Derek Meadows.
Alabama held a 14-10 lead over Georgia at the half.
