Five Alabama Players Listed as Probable for Vanderbilt Game

Published November 11, 2026. Alabama has five players listed as probable on Vanderbilt’s availability report before the teams meet in Nashville on November 14. The game is the Crimson Tide’s eighth Southeastern Conference matchup of the season and is scheduled to begin at 11:45 a.m. Central time.

Among the Alabama players discussed are co-captain and cornerback Zabien Brown and left guard Will Sanders. Brown, who has dealt with a lower-body injury, played limited snaps against LSU after missing the Texas A&M game. Alabama’s coach said Brown had not suffered a setback and was continuing to progress, with a return for the Vanderbilt game expected.

Sanders injured his lower body against Texas A&M. He dressed and warmed up with Alabama’s second-team offensive line against LSU but did not play. The coach said Sanders had made progress, but would need to improve during the week before he could be ready to compete.

SEC rules require injury reports before conference games. Initial designations include probable, questionable, doubtful or out; game-day updates can identify a player as a game-time decision or out. A player removed from the report is considered available.
