Saban said Kenyan Drake's injury is very similar to Derrick Henry's injury in the spring two years ago.

Saban: Probably eight to 10 weeks before he can start doing things that allows him to play football again.

Saban a little vague, but apparently Drake had a broken leg and dislocated ankle. Probably won't do anything 8-10 weeks.

Was it a compound fracture or no? You can never tell in football with the long socks

Broken fibula?

I hope Drake makes a full recovery.

That definitely looked like a compound fracture.

Hate to hear that

At least it doesn't sound career ending.

True still sucks because the kid can fly. Hope he bounces back to his game breaking ability soon.

I think it was obvious it was a season ender. The question was/is whether it is a career ender. I hope not - I think Drake could have a shot in the NFL. Just devastating to watch that happen.

Seriously? After watching the injury, I would say that is very good news. Glad to hear its not more serious.

Hopefully Saban is correct in comparing it to Henry's injury because he's been able to bounce back pretty well.

Not to me. Looked more like a disclocation/break.

Me too JT. I was having Prothro flash backs.

That doesn't sound nearly as bad as what I was expecting. Hope he makes a full recovery and is able to walk properly again, I don't even give a shite if he plays another down, I just want him to be healthy.

Agreed. I was concerned it would be much worse. Good luck to him.
