Alabama’s defense clapped back in scrimmage No. 2

Alabama’s offense was the highlight in the first scrimmage, but its defense responded last week with physicality and big plays.

The Crimson Tide has a complete team heading into Kalen DeBoer’s third season, yet fans want everything to be unleashed on the field. Scrimmage No. 2 was held on Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium and while the offense made some plays, the defense was hungrier.

According to highlights released by Alabama athletics via social media, there were several punishing hits made by defensive players. Dijon Lee, a sophomore cornerback, had tight coverage on wide receiver Ryan Coleman-Williams – creating a pass breakup. Jordan Edmonds and Ivan Taylor, two young defensive backs, each recorded an interception.
