Alabama freshman running back and kick returner B.J. Emmons has a sprained foot and is out indefinitely, Tide coach Nick Saban said Wednesday.

Emmons has been Alabama's primary kick returner in recent games.

For the year, he has a 26-yard kick return and has rushed for 173 yards and a touchdown as a reserve running back.

Another running back, Bo Scarbrough, missed practice Wednesday due to an illness. He's day-to-day.

So is injured offensive lineman Alphonse Taylor, who is still working back from the concussion he suffered against Arkansas Oct. 8.
