Alabama football’s true freshman running back, AK Dear has not seen any meaningful playing time since exploding for a 56-yard rushing touchdown against ULM.
This is not something totally out of the ordinary or unexpected, considering he was not listed on the Tide’s depth chart against Florida State to open the season, despite Jam Miller being out. The freshman received his first college snaps against ULM, and he made the most of them, finishing the game with 76 yards and a touchdown on five carries.
Dear would run the football two times for nine carries against Wisconsin during the following week, and it would be the last time he touched the field as a running back to this point.
