Nick Perry undergoes season-ending surgery

Reserve safety Nick Perry, who injured his shoulder during game week prep for Colorado State, will be lost for the remainder of the 2013 season due to subsequent shoulder surgery.

Perry, in conjunction with his eligibility standing and NCAA policy, will most certainly be entitled to a medical redshirt.

Listed as a four-star prospect out of Prattville High School, Perry, a current scholarship senior, has played an integral role in the Crimson Tide secondary in terms of depth and experience.

Prior to Thursday’s surgery, Perry asked for prayer via his personal Twitter account.

Surgery in the morning.. Pray for me!!
