Ole Miss offensive tackle Alex Givens had back surgery. What does it mean heading into the opener against Memphis?

Happy Ole Miss fall camp 2019!

SuperTalk’s Brian Scott Rippee reported early Monday that senior offensive tackle Alex Givens had back surgery recently but the staff is hopeful that he can still be ready in time for the 2019 opener against the Memphis Tigers at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium.

The Rebels’ most-experienced lineman is a huge piece to new offensive coordinator Mike MacIntyre’s run game and securing the blind side for new starter Matt Corral. And this news is not what fans are wanting to hear the week fall camp starts.
