“He's got a little bit of a shoulder injury. It's not a long-term injury, he’s gonna be day-to-day.”

It looks like Alabama may have dodged a bullet when it comes to the injury prognosis for their star quarterback.
Bryce Young left Saturday’s game against Arkansas with an injury to his right (throwing) shoulder, and did not return. Speaking to the media Monday, Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban said Young is considered “day-to-day,” adding that it’s not a long-term injury.
Young went down awkwardly while trying to throw the ball away at the end of a play near the sideline, and remained in the game for one more play before exiting. He was visibly upset as he entered the medical tent before eventually heading to the locker room.
Last year’s Heisman Trophy winner, Young is also widely regarded as one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2023 NFL draft class.
