Lotzeir Brooks injury update: Latest on sidelined Alabama freshman WR
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – Alabama freshman wide receiver Lotzeir Brooks has been sidelined for the past two days of preseason practice. Brooks was first spotted in a black, no-contact jersey and a walking boot on his left foot while riding on a stationary bike off to the side.
After Sunday morning’s practice, Crimson Tide coach Kalen DeBoer was asked about Brooks.
“It won’t be anything long-term or anything like that,” DeBoer said of Brooks. “So, it’ll just be a little bit of recovery here. I don’t know if it’s day-to-day, but it’s not going to be something that’s extended.”
