Alabama will not be playing LSU on Saturday (game postponed, COVID), but it does not mean Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide slack off from working.

On Tuesday, the players were indoors performing drills. While the cameras featured offensive linemen, wide receivers and outside linebackers, we also got a look at the running backs. With injuries to Trey Sanders in a car accident, fans saw true freshmen backs Jase McClellan (No. 21) and Roydell Williams (No. 23) get reps behind Najee Harris and Brian Robinson.

Coach Saban and the players have been impressed by these two.

Both guys bring something different to the running back room, and it will be exciting to see what they can do.

Alabama continues with practice despite LSU postponement

The Tide has another bye week and with extra time, Saban will have an unstoppable team ready for its next opponent.
