Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer confirmed Friday that two additional players have been ruled out for the upcoming clash against LSU, bringing the total number of unavailable players to six. The announcement comes as the team prepares for a critical Southeastern Conference showdown.
The specific identities of the newly ruled-out players and the nature of their absences were not immediately disclosed. Alabama, coming off a College Football Playoff quarterfinal appearance at the Rose Bowl on January 1, 2026, where they faced the Indiana Hoosiers, now faces significant depth challenges against a traditional rival.
The growing injury and availability list could test Alabama's roster depth as they navigate a pivotal stretch of the 2026 season. DeBoer, in his first season leading the program, will need to adjust his game plan accordingly for the LSU contest.
