Alabama WR Calvin Ridley

Nick Saban has depth at every position, but it’s come in very handy at receiver. The Crimson Tide have lost receiver after receiver this season and just swapped in one for another, let the injured players heal, and kept winning. Ridley is titularly the No. 1, but the team has spread the ball around, sometimes out of necessity as much as role.

Ridley missed practice this week and while the team hasn’t commented officially, he was seen with a knee wrap. Sources could not confirm the specifics of the injury, but did tell me he’s a true game-time decision. Alabama’s game plan does not hinge on his availability.

This is why Ive not understood Robert foster & Cam Sims not getting more time in the rotation.
Mainly Foster at the minimum as a deep threat to clear out stuff underneath .
I do respect the beast that Calvin is becoming, but how does a kid with foster talent go from starting,
to not playing meaningful minutes at all.
Surly we could use a Cam Sims height/size more inside the red zone.

But there is no way I would have though Robert Foster would not be playing more meaningful snaps this year.
Especially in a kiffin type offense post Derick Henry..

But lets hope Calvin is good to go come game time.
