Alabama hit the the field for the first time Friday for the first practice of a split-squad practice day. Here is what I saw during the limited viewing period:

Eddie Jackson was going through drills in a regular jersey (no pads) with a knee brace on his right knee. I wouldn't read too much into it, but it's a positive sign that he was backpedaling, planting and cutting.

Jake Coker, Blake Sims and Cooper Bateman were the quarterbacks out for the morning practice. They were throwing to Amari Cooper, DeAndrew White, Robert Foster, Chris Black, and Christion Jones. Tight ends were O.J. Howard, Brian Vogler and Malcolm Faciane.

The running backs were T.J. Yeldon, Derrick Henry, Kenyan Drake and Jalston Fowler.

Ryan Anderson practiced with the inside linebackers along with Trey DePriest, Reggie Ragland and Reuben Foster. Dillon Lee was with the outside linebackers.

On the defensive line were A'Shawn Robinson, Dalvin Tomlinson, D.J. Pettway, Darren Lake, Jonathan Allen and Anthony Orr.

Landon Collins, Geno Smith, Jarrick Williams and Nick Perry were with the safeties.

The freshmen and other players practice tonight at 7:30.
