With Domani Jackson missing all of spring practice with an injury and being limited at times during fall camp, it has opened the door for a lot of reps for freshman CB Dijon Lee, and the former 5-star is taking full advantage.
The path to playing time as a true freshman for Lee was never going to be easy. Alabama returned starting corners in Jackson and Zabien Brown, but Lee's talent is undeniable. Kane Wommack and DB coach Maurice Linguist had no issue rotating corners last season, a concept that was rare under Nick Saban. They'll have even more luxury to do so this season with Lee and experienced Utah transfer Cam Calhoun providing valuable depth behind Jackson and Brown.
