Alabama offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor revealed he was battling an injury in his right ankle during the Crimson Tide’s game against Michigan in the Rose Bowl on Monday. According to AL.com, Proctor noted that the injury took place at practice.

“Trying to treat it all week,” Proctor said following Alabama’s 27-20 loss. “Today, tried to shoot it up. If felt good. It felt good today, played the whole game I’m proud I played the whole game with me injured

“We’ve had some long meetings. Had long talks with our doctors and trying to figure out a good plan for us to get me on the field as fast as we can. We put a good plan together. The doctors did a great job.”

During warmups it appeared that backup offensive tackle Elijah Pritchett was taking first-team reps with the offense before Proctor rejoined the unit.

Although he was able to return to the team in time for kickoff, it was a rough showing from the offensive line which allowed six sacks to the Wolverines consistently appearing to be confused by the multiple stunts.
