How many wide receivers will be in Alabama football’s rotation against Western Kentucky

Alabama football plans to play a good group of wide receivers in its first game against Western Kentucky on Saturday. 

The Hilltoppers will have to be at the top of their game as the Crimson Tide plans to play a variety of combinations at wide receiver. 

“I think naturally we’ll substitute different packages,” DeBoer said. “We’ve always done that. It gets a lot of guys different chances to get out of the field, different combinations. They might line up in different spots. So, that naturally happens. Early in the season, you want to give as many guys that you think can be in the mix a chance. That being said, you got to make sure you can execute and guys can get into a rhythm as well. So I’d say we’re fairly confident with anywhere from 5 to 7…We run a lot of ones and twos in every practice, like most people do. We have six solid guys, for sure, and there’s a couple there that are pushing pretty hard.”

Kendrick Law, Kobe Prentice, Germie Bernard, Cole Adams, Ryan Williams, Emmanuel Henderson and Caleb Odom have generated the most buzz at wide receiver throughout fall camp for the Tide.
