Alabama Center Ryan Kelly likely out again

Alabama Crimson Tide center Ryan Kelly was injured in the Tide’s 23-17 loss to the Ole Miss Rebels on October 4 and missed the Tide’s 14-13 over the Arkansas Razorbacks last week.

The Tide were hopeful he’d only miss the one game and would return when they Tide host the Texas A&M Aggies Saturday but that does not appear to be the case.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban expects to get Kelly back next week but believes he will miss the Texas A&M game.

“He’s about ready to start practicing again,” Saban said via The Ledger-Enquirer. “But it’ll probably be another week before we really get him back.”

Kelly was clearly missed last week. In Alabama’s 14-13 win over the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Tide rushed for just 66 yards and only had 227 total yards off offense.

The Tide started redshirt freshman Bradley Bozeman against Arkansas and he is line to get the start again this week.

Alabama and Texas A&M will kick-off at 3:30 pm EST and the game is on CBS.
