After Alabama appeared to be figuring things out offensively it may have suffered a monumental step back Saturday against Arkansas.
During the second quarter of action, quarterback Bryce Young appeared to injure his right shoulder during a third-down incompletion.
The Heisman Trophy winner headed to the sidelines where he immediately threw his helmet and went to the medical tent.
Backup quarterback Jalen Milroe entered the game following a defensive stop and led the unit to a touchdown scoring drive with Young remaining in the media tent.
Soon after Young would emerge from the tent and head directly to the Crimson Tide’s locker room.
At halftime, head coach Nick Saban confirmed that Young sustained a shoulder injury but the severity is unknown.
“He’s got a shoulder injury,” Saban said on the CBS broadcast. “I don’t know the extent of it, I don’t know how bad it is. They worked on him inside, so I’ll probably see when we go in.”
Prior to leaving the game, Young completed 7-of-13 passes for 173 yards with one touchdown and one interception.
