Alabama lost one of the most explosive players in college football, and a key piece to their lethal offense when Jaylen Waddle suffered a fractured ankle on the opening kickoff against Tennessee in October.
The Crimson Tide survived, winning every game without Waddle, and introduced some young stars such as Slade Bolden and Jahleel Billingsley.
While they have been playing well, it doesn’t mean they won’t welcome back a healthy Waddle – and that’s what Saban may have on his hands.
In a video posted to Instagram by fellow wide receiver DeVonta Smith, Waddle can be seen moving around, smiling without a walking boot.
Is he back? What does this mean for Alabama? What does this mean for Florida?
No definitive answers can be given just yet, but these are definitely good signs.
The video can be seen below, and it does contain explitive language.
