Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer said he expects starting running back Jam Miller to return in time for the SEC opener against Georgia on Sept. 27.
Miller dislocated his collarbone in the Tide's scrimmage last Saturday and will miss the opener against Florida State on Aug. 30. He's doubtful to play in the next two games against ULM and Wisconsin. Alabama has a bye the week before its visit to Georgia.
"He's a leader for us, a quiet leader, but somebody the players all respect," DeBoer told ESPN.
