Alabama football prepares for first scrimmage of fall camp

Alabama football will conduct its first scrimmage of fall camp on Thursday morning in Tuscaloosa. This scrimmage serves as a crucial evaluation opportunity for head coach Kalen DeBoer and his staff as they assess players in a game-like environment. Key areas to watch include the ongoing quarterback competition between Keelon Russell and Austin Mack, the offensive line's performance after losing all five starters, and the running back situation with Daniel Hill. Additionally, the contest for the No. 3 wide receiver spot and defensive performance, particularly from Devan Thompkins, are critical storylines as Alabama aims to establish depth before the season.
