The University of Alabama football team has a talented wide receiver room, but the guys are ready to show their skills.
People have yet to see the depth of this group shine, yet Coach JaMarcus Shephard is getting players set to drop jaws.

Kendrick Law, a junior, is one weapon in the room who is more than ready to show his skill set.
The Louisiana native is arguably the most versatile playmaker on the team. He can catch passes, run routes, take hand-offs as a running back or on jet sweeps, and can even be a factor on special teams. Shephard and Nick Sheridan (Alabama’s offensive coordinator) are working on ways to feature him more. Jalen Milroe spoke to reporters Saturday after practice.
The returning quarterback knows his guy is about to be let loose on the field.
Alabama QB Jalen Milroe breaks down how multifaceted Kendrick Law is in the Crimson Tide’s offense:
“He is not one-dimensional. We can use him in the passing game, running game, and to block. We can use him all over the field.”@TDAlabamaMag @TouchdownETP pic.twitter.com/aT5OFnxsxN

“He is not one-dimensional,” Milroe said about Law. “We can use him in the run game, we can use him in the passing game, we can use him to block. We can utilize him all over the offense. He has a lot of skills we can utilize.”
Law caught eight passes for 103 yards as a freshman in 2022 and 15 passes for 135 yards last season.
This is the time for him to take over as an all-purpose playmaker.
