Tuesday's practice noted some changes in the health of several key players for Alabama, so here's what we saw:

After not being at practice on Sunday, Alabama freshman wide receiver Lotzeir Brooks was back at practice, still wearing a black non-contact jersey (signifying that he is recovering from injury). On Sunday, Brooks was wearing a boot on his left foot while working on the stationary bike. Today, he was back in a normal cleat.

Qua Russaw had been working off to the side of the WOLF linebacker room, and was a little banged up. Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer said, "He was out there taking team reps. There's nothing as far as anything we're concerned about. The volume, a little bit, just tweaked it a little bit, but he's good. [He's] playing at a high level, so just making sure we're careful. He's good," when asked about Russaw's availability.

On Tuesday, Russaw was back leading the WOLF linebacker room, followed by Jah-Marien Latham, Noah Carter, Justin Hill, and Yhonzae Pierre, in that order.

Alabama cornerback Zabien Brown led the way during defensive back drills, coached by Maurice Linguist. Behind him were Cam Calhoun, Dijon Lee, and Red Morgan in that order. Alabama cornerback Domani Jackson was on a pitch count during practice.
