Alabama State Faces Quarterback Uncertainty After Andrew Body’s Season-Ending Injury

The news of Texas Southern transfer quarterback Andrew Body’s season-ending shoulder injury has left Alabama State football fans reeling as they head into a crucial matchup against Miles this weekend. With Body out, the Hornets are left scrambling to find a new leader for their offense.

In the absence of Body, the spotlight now falls on the remaining quarterbacks on the roster. Graduate student Jonah O’Brien, who has bounced around various programs before landing at Alabama State, seems to be the most experienced option. Despite a rocky performance in the Orange Blossom Classic, O’Brien could be the coach’s choice moving forward.

Freshman Zach Sims, a three-time Alabama state championship QB, brings a dual-threat ability to the table and could challenge O’Brien for the starting role. Jayvius Langford, a junior transfer, adds depth to the quarterback chart, although his playing style remains a mystery due to lack of statistics.

Another freshman, James Hayes, from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, also joins the mix. With an impressive senior year in high school, Hayes could potentially make an impact if given the opportunity.

As the Hornets prepare to face Miles without their star quarterback, the uncertainty surrounding the QB position looms large. With injuries plaguing their most experienced players, Alabama State will need to rely on their young talent to step up and fill the void left by Body’s absence. The game against Miles will be a true test of the team’s resilience and adaptability in the face of adversity.
