Expect this veteran Alabama WR to step up against Vandy with Kendrick Law out

John David Mercer - USA Today Sports

No one knows the extent of Kendrick Law’s injury versus Georgia, but the junior wide receiver is out for Saturday’s matchup against Vanderbilt at FirstBank Stadium in Nashville, Tenn.

The game is set for 3:15 p.m. CT as the Crimson Tide looks to improve to 5-0.

Law’s absence opens an opportunity for another receiver Alabama signed in its 2022 class. Kobe Prentice, a junior from Calera, Ala., is the No. 2 option at the H-position behind Law. He now has an opportunity to emerge with a marquee performance versus the Commodores. Prentice joins Ryan Williams and Germie Bernard as the Tide’s three starting receivers in the game.

Prentice made big plays as a freshman and sophomore, but has not seen many reps through four games of this campaign. 

He has experience and is very talented. Prentice stands with seven catches for 92 yards and a touchdown.

It will be exciting to watch what he does against Vanderbilt.
