Alabama defensive back, Shyheim Carter, followed Jaylen Waddle in Thursday’s media viewing period for student-athletes inside the Mal Moore Facility. The senior and Louisiana native was tied for second on the team in breakups (10) and forced two interceptions — both returned for touchdowns — last season.
Carter spoke on how difficult it is to cover Waddle and is excited about getting more opportunities to work at safety in Alabama’s defense. He also gave an in-depth story on how he was able to learn the playbook.
