Alabama middle linebacker Shaun Dion Hamilton suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during the SEC title game, AL.com reported on Tuesday. The damage was determined after an MRI exam.
An ACL injury would end the season of Hamilton, a junior who ranks third on the squad with 64 tackles, including nine for losses.
Hamilton was injured during the second quarter of Saturday's victory over Florida. He was helped to the locker room and was seen sporting crutches after the contest.
Hamilton has two interceptions, including one against Florida that he returned 40 yards to set up a field goal.
The Crimson Tide have yet to acknowledge the seriousness of Hamilton's injury.
Top-ranked Alabama faces No. 4 Washington in the College Football Playoff semifinals on Dec. 31.
