Alabama DB Khyree Jackson held out of scrimmage with groin injury

Alabama completed its first scrimmage of fall camp on Saturday without one of its experienced cornerbacks.

Nick Saban shared in his press conference following the scrimmage that senior cornerback Khyree Jackson was held out with a groin issue that isn’t expected to be serious.

“Khyree is out so he didn’t participate today with a little bit of a groin injury,” Saban said. “Hopefully it won’t keep him out long.”

Jackson, who appeared in 12 games last season which included starting the national championship game, is entrenched in competition at corner with several other players eyeing the starting spots.
