The five-star quarterback suffered an ankle injury but is reportedly not seriously hurt as he prepares to compete for Alabama's starting role.

  • Sideline reports indicated that Russell stated he could continue playing, but he was held out as a precaution to avoid unnecessary risks in the exhibition game.
  • Russell is the No. 2 overall recruit in the 2025 class and is expected to compete for Alabama's starting quarterback position following Jalen Milroe's decision to enter the 2025 NFL Draft.
  • The Under Armour All-America Game featured top high school prospects from the 2025 and 2026 recruiting classes, including 18 five-star players across two teams, Team Icon and Team Unstoppable.
