Alabama starting defensive end LaBryan Ray is out indefinitely with a foot injury, coach Nick Saban said on Monday.
Ray, a preseason All-SEC selection, injured his foot during Saturday's win at South Carolina. As a freshman in 2017, Ray was limited to six games because of a foot injury.
Saban said Ray will miss this weekend's home game against Southern Miss, if not longer.
"We're doing further testing to see what it is with his foot," Saban said, "but it's undetermined how long he'll be out."
Alabama has been dealing with a rash of injuries on defense this year, most recently at inside linebacker where starters Joshua McMillon and Butkus Award finalist Dylan Moses suffered season-ending injuries just before the start of the season.
