TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama remained indoors Saturday as it held its second practice in preparation for its Orange Bowl matchup against Oklahoma on Dec. 29. Players were dressed in full pads for the workout. Here are some notes from the media viewing period.
— Alabama had two early enrollees at practice as quarterback Paul Tyson and offensive lineman Pierce Quick both suited up for the first time after enrolling earlier this week. Wide receiver John Metchie also enrolled early but was not participating in practice.
— Quick and Tyson still have to go through an acclimation period and were dressed in helmets, shirts and shorts for the workout. The two four-stars were also teammates at Hewitt-Trussville High School. Quick stood to the side and watched as the rest of the offensive lineman went through contact drills. Tyson participated in both footwork drills as well as RPOs with the running backs.
— Tua Tagovailoa was moving well and participated in footwork drills with the rest of the quarterbacks. His left ankle is still taped, but from what we’ve seen in practice, he looks to be progressing very well from the high-ankle sprain he suffered in the SEC Championship Game.
