Who will start as the Crimson Tide’s third receiving option against East Carolina?

Alabama WR Rico Scott (#7) is one of multiple players the Tide will lean on to replace Germie Bernard in the fall.

Many who follow Alabama football closely feel Ryan Williams and Lotzeir Brooks will start at wide receiver for Alabama against East Carolina.

Who will be the third starting wide receiver?

Kalen DeBoer was asked Wednesday during the SEC Coaches Teleconference will Derek Meadows or Rico Scott get the nod.

“It kind of depends on a little bit what we want as far as personnel, eleven or twelve personnel, tight ends on the field, multiple running backs,” DeBoer said. “I mean, there’s a lot of different things we can do. So sometimes it has to do with what each guy does best. Rico’s (Scott) the guy that’s been around a little bit longer, probably give a nod to him, but that doesn’t mean that Derek can’t do that. They are both gonna be integral parts. They’re both gonna be in the mix, having an impact.”

Meadows did not have catch last lesson, but he did have a string spring and fall camp. Scott finished last season with two receiving touchdowns on 11 receptions for 98 yards.
