TUSCALOOSA, Ala.— Alabama rolled to a 34-0 victory over Missouri inside Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday, and the Crimson Tide managed to stay relatively healthy in the blowout win. However, wide receiver and starting punt returner Cole Adams did leave with an injury.

Adams was injured on the Crimson Tide's first offensive possession of the game and was immediately taken to the injury tent. He then was carted to the locker room and later returned with his left foot heavily wrapped up on crutches.

Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer said after the game that it was "lower extremity injury" that will be evaluated further on Monday.

"It feels like something that's going to be a little bit of time where he'll be missed," DeBoer said.

Adams has been Alabama's punt returner for the majority of this season and has six catches for 94 yards on the year.
