The No. 2 jersey at Alabama, previously worn by Derrick Henry, has been claimed.
Wide receiver Gehrig Dieter, a graduate transfer from Bowling Green, revealed Thursday he'll take the Heisman Trophy winner's old number for the upcoming season.

If Dieter can carry on the legacy of the No. 2 jersey left behind by Henry, it'll be quite a year for the former Falcon.
Dieter announced his transfer to the Crimson Tide on Feb. 13.
