Alabama Coach Nick Saban discusses Ole Miss and Kent State - Alabama - Scout/rbr
The Tide coach said that Cam Sims has been playing well and would likely take some of the playing time for Stewart. He also said Rob Foster would get some playing time. And he said, "A young guy that we've been trying to play both ways who's got a lot of promise is Trevon Diggs, who because of our lack of depth in the secondary, maybe trying to be playing him both ways. I think we'll probably try to emphasize more offense with him this week."
rbr opI mentioned Diggs a little above. If you didn't catch it, Diggs twice lined up as a running against Ole Miss. One of those times, he ended up motioning out to become a wide out, but that shows that the coaches are a fan of his positional versatility.
Players who get thrust into too many positions as a freshman often end up making a huge impact for Nick Saban a year or two later. See: Mark Barron, Cyrus Jones, B.J. Scott, Eddie Jackson. He has good size, good speed, and above all, a silky-smooth feel for playing football.
I don't know if he'll ultimately end up on defense or offense, but Trevon Diggs is going to make an impact either way.
