Alabama wide receiver sees benefit of having DeBoer around more

Alabama football’s wide receiver coach JaMarcus Shephard has recently taken a step back from the team after taking the head coaching position at Oregon State a few weeks ago. Kalen DeBoer is stepping up to fill his role for the time being.

Shephard stayed with the team through the SEC Championship, but recently left for Corvallis to fulfill his head coaching responsibilities. DeBoer, being a former wide receiver in his playing career, has been stepping in to help the receiver room.

Wide receiver Germie Bernard spoke on Monday about what it’s been like to have DeBoer working with the position group.
