Nick told Jalen how much he respected him and to take one for the team.

He'll tell Tua to take one for the team and play for the team (for Nick) and Tua will tough it out as long as he can.

he has a partial meniscus tear which you can keep going on as long as it don't completely tear it later. they could scope it now and he'd be out for a month or so but likely back this season. Lord Saban wants him to tough it out. and the kids a competitor. he's going to play.

Sounds like he won’t be able to scramble as well

Very short sighted of Saban if true. Bama can easily beat everyone on their schedule except maybe LSU on the road, with Hurts at quarterback. And even with 1 potential loss Bama is garaunteed a spot in the playoffs. Having a 100% healthy Tua for the postseason seems like the smarter decision.

Not to mention it would be better for that young man’s future to get his knee fixed and healed now, rather risking making it much worse.
