Alabama under Saban has adopted some unique traditions. The most well known tradition is the wrestling belt that goes to the defensive player with the biggest play of the game (Da'ron Payne may get it for this play against Ole Miss). Apparently there is something else going on that we don't know about.

And it has to do with an axe.
After being taken out of Saturday's game against Ole Miss following concussion protocol, Bama wide receiver ArDarius Stewart was seen on the sidelines carrying a axe of all things.
Gets a concussion and removed from the game for his own safety. ✅Training staff gives him an axe. ✅#RollTide https://t.co/fJbWLwSojF

Many questions about why ArDarius Stewart has an ax on the sidelines. I assume it's because that's better than letting Saban hold it.

ArDarius Stewart is in street clothes on the sideline... and is holding an axe.

ArDarius Stewart is not wearing a helmet or shoulder pads on the Alabama sideline, but is carrying an ax, so there’s that.

You might imagine this will come up during the post game. Hopefully for the sake of all of college football there will be answers about this axe.
