Want to see some former Alabama Crimson Tide players in action this weekend?

It's Week 3 of the NFL preseason, with every team in action as the league holds a big weekend in terms of player evaluation and determining who will make final rosters at the end of the month.

Overall, there hasn't been much activity with former Alabama players this week, at least in terms of transactions. An exception was offensive lineman Evan Neal passing his physical and removed from the active/physically unable to perform list.

Neal had been rehabilitating his surgically repaired ankle, but is back practicing with the New York Giants.

"I just know that with the rehab process he's had a few good days here in a row," coach Brian Daboll said per the Giants website. "Everybody feels good with where he's at. So now it's the ramp up."
