Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer confirmed Monday that defensive lineman Jeremiah Beaman suffered a knee injury during Sunday practice. Further testing identified a torn ACL in Beaman’s left knee, and he underwent surgery Tuesday at UAB St. Vincent’s with Dr. Lyle Cain performing the procedure. Beaman is reported to miss the entire 2026 season. The Birmingham native is entering his third year with Alabama after starting the 2025 opener against Florida State. He then suffered a season-ending ACL injury in practice the following week, making this his second season-ending ACL injury in two years. Beaman is listed at 6-foot-4 and 301 pounds.
