COLLEGE STATION, Tx. − Alabama football starting defensive back Malachi Moore sustained a right lower-body injury that forced him to be carted to the locker room in the first half against Texas A&M.
Moore had to be helped off by two trainers to the medical tent and couldn’t put weight on his right leg. He returned to the sideline in the second half, but he was in street clothes and wearing a boot on his right foot. Moore was putting weight on it, though.
He was spotted leaving the locker room after the game using crutches while he put some weight on his right foot that was still in a boot.
Before he went to the locker room in the first half, Moore was in the tent for about seven minutes before he emerged. He didn’t have a shoe on his right foot once he left the tent. Cornerback Terrion Arnold made a brief stop inside the tent to visit his teammate.
Saban noted Arnold shifted over to Moore’s spot when Moore went out. Trey Amos then came in the game to fill Arnold’s spot.
Moore is the starting Star defensive back for the defense and a leader in the secondary. The senior from Trussville, Alabama, came into the Texas A&M game having tallied 14 tackles to go with one interception.
