Senior wide receiver Grant Heard enters the stadium before the Alabama game.

The man's name is Grant

After tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during the Independence Bowl preparations, senior wide receiver Grant Heard knew that he had a shoulder to lean on during his recovery.

Grant is not the only Heard on the team. Older brother Ronnie, a starting linebacker and the recipient of the Chucky Mullins Courage Award, is also a senior on the Rebel football team. Having a brother on the same team is something the 6-foot-3, 190 pound receiver enjoys.
