Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa suffers high ankle sprain vs. Tennessee

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa of the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide suffered a high ankle sprain during Saturday night's 35-13 win over Tennessee, coach Nick Saban told ESPN's Molly McGrath, and will "probably be out for a week or two."

Tennessee defensive tackle Greg Emerson sacked Tagovailoa for a 5-yard loss at the Alabama 16 on the first play of the Crimson Tide's second possession of the second quarter. Replays showed that Emerson rolled over Tagovailoa's feet as he took him down.

Tagovailoa didn't come out immediately.
