Defensive Personnel Update: Jalen Redmond Might Finally Be Back

It appears No. 2 Oklahoma will have redshirt-sophomore defensive lineman Jalen Redmond back for their showdown against the Kansas Jayhawks.

Fans were no doubt disappointed to see OU radio analyst Gabe Ikard report that freshman wide receiver Mario Williams was out and perhaps senior wide receiver Mike Woods as well versus the Kansas Jayhawks.

Ikard said Oklahoma also looks to be without the services of sophomore cornerback D.J. Graham and senior safety Delarrin Turner-Yell. However, he delivered some news that will be a long-awaited, welcome sight for Sooners fans.

 

This would be fantastic news if in fact redshirt-sophomore Jalen Redmond is back for Oklahoma. The Midwest City product hasn’t played since recording five tackles and 1.5 sacks against the Nebraska Cornhuskers back on Sept. 18th in Norman.

Redmond has been working his way back from a knee injury. He would replenish some much-needed depth up front along the Sooners’ defensive line.
