Even on a mediocre day from the quarterbacks, at least two Alabama wide receivers stood out above the rest.

Robert Foster and ArDarius Stewart shared the Dixie Howell Memorial Most Valuable Player of the A-Day Game Award after the pair combined for 243 yards and two touchdowns on 14 receptions Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Foster was the game’s leading receiver with six catches for 125 yards, while Stewart led the way in scoring with a pair of scores on eight catches for 118 yards.

“I was very pleased with the way our two young receivers played today,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said. “They both made plays, they both played with confidence.”

After redshirting in 2013 and playing sparingly in 2014, both Foster and Stewart are probable starters this season for a position group that lost its three starters (Amari Cooper, DeAndrew White and Christion Jones) from a year ago.

Last season, Stewart recorded 12 receptions for 149 yards in 13 games played (two starts); Foster played in nine games with six catches for 44 yards.

Both receivers were members of the White team (first-team offense), who defeated the Crimson (first-team defense), 27-14, Saturday.

Former Alabama running back T.J. Yeldon won the MVP honors the past three A-Days.

Center Ryan Kelly won the Dwight Stephenson Lineman of the A-Day Game Award, the other accolade voted on by the media based on the player’s performance during the annual spring scrimmage. Reporters also annually vote for the game's MVP.
