​An Alabama football offensive lineman could be back for the Crimson Tide’s prime time matchup against Georgia.Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer said he is “optimistic” that Jayvin James, who missed Alabama’s 56-23 road win against Mississippi State, will return against the Bulldogs.Tyrell Miller replaced James on the line at right tackle. “It’s great to see Tyrell get out there,” DeBoer said. “Tyrell is crazy athletic, has a lot of skill, and for him to get out there… get his feet underneath him, though the did a nice job for his first, really, start.” DeBoer said linebacker Desmond Umeozulu will “likely not be ready for this week” and will likely miss a few more weeks. DeBoer said linebacker Justin Hill is “just working back from his lower extremity injury” and is expected back this season “but more likely not this week.” DeBoer added that freshman defensive back Jorden Edmonds will “still be out for quite a while” with a broken foot.”There’s a chance he can come back here, even in the regular season, but it will be a little bit yet,” DeBoer said.
