Alabama football will be without a handful of starters against Eastern Illinois.

According to On3, the Crimson Tide will be without center Parker Brailsford, tight end Josh Cuevas and wide receiver Germie Bernard on Saturday, Nov. 22.

Brailsford was seen in a walking boot in the days leading up to Saturday’s game. Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer said Brailsford’s status was “up in the air” in the SEC coaches teleconference Wednesday, Nov. 19.

Brailsford participated in Alabama’s pregame “Walk of Champions” ahead of Eastern Illinois. He was not wearing a boot, but was seen walking with a significant limp.

Alabama will also be without defensive lineman Jeremiah Beaman and linebacker Jah-Marien Latham, who are out with season-ending injuries.

Alabama kicks off against Eastern Illinois at 1 p.m. CT.
