Could see time in backfield
Coach Nick Saban said Wednesday that Townsend could be a possible depth option at running back for Alabama in 2019, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With Damien Harris and Joshua Jacobs bound for the NFL, Najee Harris is the only returning running back on the roster with more than 100 career carries. Saban expressed confidence that the fourth-string option from 2018, Brian Robinson, will be effective as the top complement to Harris, but the depth chart looks to be fairly fluid behind the top two options. With Alabama returning the entirety of its star-studded wideout corps for the upcoming season, Townsend may actually have a clearer path to snaps at running back rather than his natural position.
