Parker Brailsford hasn’t played up to his typical standard in recent weeks. However, if you ask his Alabama coaches and teammates, it’s impressive that the starting center has been able to play at all.
Brailsford has been dealing with an injury he suffered last month. The setback caused him to sit out Alabama’s win over Eastern Illinois. It also led to lackluster performances against Auburn and Georgia the past two games.
During a Tuesday media session, offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb referred to Brailsford as a “warrior,” stating he couldn’t believe he was able to play in recent games.
