Campbell Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Melina Myers-Imagn Images Star receiver Ryan Williams exited Alabama's season-opening 31-17 loss Saturday at Florida State in the fourth quarter due to a concussion, according to head coach Kalen DeBoer.
Williams took a blow to the head after dropping a pass with 6:07 left in the contest. Two Seminoles were in the area and Earl Little Jr. was called for targeting before the ruling was reviewed and subsequently overturned.
Williams made his way off the field and didn't return to the contest for No. 8 Alabama. DeBoer said the 6-foot sophomore will be evaluated leading up to next week's home game against UL Monroe.
Williams finished with five receptions for just 30 yards in the shocking loss to a Florida State team coming off a 2-10 campaign. His long gain was 11 yards.
Williams excelled last season by catching 48 passes for a team-high 865 yards and eight touchdowns. He also rushed for two scores and returned punts for the Crimson Tide.
