Alabama Football issued its first availability report of the week on Wednesday evening.

Six Alabama players were featured on the initial report. Linebackers Jah-Marien Latham (neck) and Qua Russaw (foot) and defensive lineman Jeremiah Beaman (knee) are all out. Russaw suffered a broken foot against Georgia and will be sidelined for an extended amount of time.

New to the availability report were wide receivers Ryan Williams and Jaylen Mbakwe, as well as linebacker Cayden Jones. All three played last week against Vanderbilt, and Williams came up for interviews after Tuesday’s practice. Williams is Alabama’s second-leading receiver with 336 yards and three touchdowns on 21 receptions in only four appearances this season.

The No. 8 Crimson Tide (4-1, 2-0 SEC) will travel to play No. 14 Missouri (5-0, 1-0) on Saturday, Oct. 11, at Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 a.m. CT on ABC.

SEC Availability Report Policies

Beginning with the 2024-25 athletics season, all Southeastern Conference schools will provide public reports on the availability of student-athletes to participate in each conference game in the sports of football, men’s and women’s basketball and baseball.

Prior to a Saturday football game, an institution must issue the Initial Report on Wednesday by 7 p.m. CT and update the Availability Report once per day on Thursday and Friday (after the conclusion of practice and before 7 p.m.). On game day, an institution must provide one Game Day Update no later than 90 minutes before game time.

Designated Participation Statuses 

If an institution has knowledge that a student-athlete may not be able to participate in the upcoming game for any reason (including, but not limited to, injury, illness, suspension, ineligibility, or personal matter), the institution must accurately designate the student-athlete’s participation status on the Initial Report as follows: 

– Out – Will not play / 0% chance to play

– Doubtful – Unlikely to play / 25% chance to play

– Questionable – Uncertain to play / 50% chance to play

– Probable – Probable to play / 75% chance to play
