The Alabama Crimson Tide was back in action on Friday for its fourth practice period of the spring session. The Tide has its first back-to-back days during spring ball this weekend as the team is scheduled to practice on Friday and Saturday.
In a year where Alabama has some of its important leaders on both sides of the ball, one player on defense has begun to step into that role, according to Nick Saban.
Alabama defensive lineman DJ Dale and defensive back Malachi Moore both announced on their own social media partnerships with Bojangles while eating its new fried chicken sandwich menu option.
DJ Dale's ability to return from injury and play well, eating up blockers will open up lanes for the linebackers to make big plays which will allow the Crimson Tide defense to return to an elite level.
