Alabama suspends Dre Krikpatrick Jr. ahead of Texas A&M game

Alabama has suspended starting defensive back Dre Krikpatrick Jr. for its upcoming game against Texas A&M on Saturday. The suspension comes without explanation, marking a continuation of Krikpatrick's disciplinary issues, as he was previously suspended for the latter part of the 2025 season. The Crimson Tide also ruled out center Racin Delgatty, defensive back Zabien Brown, and running back EJ Crowell ahead of the game. Earlier in the week, receiver Ryan Coleman-Williams and defensive tackle Terrance Green were already announced as out for Saturday’s match. Alabama hopes to improve after scoring just three points in the second half of their last two games, both of which were losses.
