Emboldened: How the Tide will roll on without Waddle

Slade Bolden made it clear that he could hold up under pressure in Knoxville. The redshirt sophomore was willing and able to step in for the injured Jaylen Waddle, and Nick Saban is confident he can keep it up. “He doesn’t need to be anybody but himself,” coach Saban said.

Alexander Plant | @aplant63, Sports Editor October 25, 2020
Alabama beat the hell out of the Tennessee Volunteers on Saturday, but it came at a cost. Junior wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will be out for the rest of the season after an ankle injury in the opening kickoff. Without Waddle, players like Slade Bolden will have to step up. Saturday’s game proved Bolden and his offensive teammates can handle the challenge.
