Alabama football center Parker Brailsford is not expected to play in the A-Day spring game on Saturday.
“Right now, I wouldn’t plan on him with just the limited practice he’s had throughout the spring,” coach Kalen DeBoer said. “He didn’t practice (Thursday).”
DeBoer was asked for the latest on Brailsford, who has been dealing with “non-football related things,” DeBoer said earlier in the spring.
“He will be with us here sooner than later,” DeBoer said. “He’s doing all the things to make sure he’s ready to go.”

DeBoer said earlier in spring that Brailsford is working out with the strength staff and has done “a great job there.”
“He’s never done anything wrong, it’s nothing like that,” DeBoer said on April 6. “He’s working hard, and he’s going to be ready to go here sooner than later so we are just taking it day-by-day.”
Brailsford is competing for Alabama’s starting spot with James Brockermeyer. Brailsford transferred from Washington during the offseason. Brockermeyer was with Alabama last season.
