Good morning, Tide fans! Welcome to another edition of Alabama Morning Drive. Game week has arrived for the Alabama Crimson Tide and there will tons of coverage here at Roll Tide Wire!
Perhaps the biggest news in sports right now, or at least as far as I am concerned is the fact that former Alabama running back [autotag]Brian Robinson[/autotag] was shot multiple times on Sunday during an attempted robbery or carjacking in Washington DC.
All reports indicate that Robinson is in stable condition with non-life-threatening injuries.
Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera provided an update late Sunday night on Twitter after being able to visit with Robinson in the hospital.
I just got done visiting w/Brian. He is in good spirits and wanted me to thank everyone for their kind words, prayers & support. He wants his teammates to know he appreciates them all for reaching out and he loves them all & will be back soon doing what he does best.
