No. 21 Alabama loses DL Jeremiah Beaman for the season because of a lower-body injury - Medicine Hat News

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- No. 21 Alabama will be without defensive lineman Jeremiah Beaman for the rest of his season after he sustained a lower-body injury in practice Wednesday. Coach Kalen DeBoer announced Beaman's status on his weekly radio show. Beaman started last week's season opener at Florida State and logged a quarterback hurry. Beaman was starting in place of fourth-year junior Tim Keenan, who remains sidelined with a lower-body injury. "Tim Keenan will not be available this week, but he's doing really well and making the progress that we would expect," DeBoer said. "This is not a long-term injury for him." Without Beaman and Keenan, the Crimson Tide will turn to sophomore Edric Hill and freshmen Isaia Faga and London Simmons to increase their workload against Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.
