Grabs TD against Oklahoma
Earle hauled in 4 of 6 targets for 94 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 69-45 defeat versus Oklahoma.
ANALYSIS
Earle recorded his first touchdown since Week 2 of the regular season. The six targets were a season-high as TCU's pass-game has experienced ups and down during the 2023 season. Earle posted 16 catches (on 29 targets) for 239 yards and two touchdowns during his first season with the Horned Frogs.

Nabs first TD with TCU
Earle compiled two catches (on three targets) for 23 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 41-6 victory versus Nicholls State.
ANALYSIS
Earle was able to notch his first touchdown with the Horned Frogs as a transfer from Alabama. Through two games, he has just five targets, so until he sees more volume, he's a speculative play for fantasy purposes. TCU will play at Houston next week.

Commits to TCU
Earle has announced that he will be transferring to TCU, Hayes Fawcett of On3.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle is a massive get for the Horned Frogs and will look to make more of a splash with his new team. The 5-10 sophomore totaled 24 catches for 303 yards and two touchdowns in two seasons at Alabama and should have an immediate role with the likely departure of Derius Davis.

Leaving Alabama
Earle entered the transfer portal Monday, Matt Zenitz of On3.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle, a former top-50 recruit, is now in line to leave the Crimson Tide and suit up elsewhere next season following Monday's announcement. The speedy wide receiver logged near-identical stat lines between his first two collegiate campaigns including 12 receptions for 148 yards as a freshman and 12 catches for 155 yards and two touchdowns as a sophomore.

Scores in 2022 debut
Earle (foot) caught his lone target for a 22-yard touchdown against Arkansas in his 2022 debut.
ANALYSIS
Earle got back in the fold after missing the first four games while recovering from a Jones fracture in his foot. Now healthy, Earle stands to see his role increase. That said, Alabama has a deep receiving corps with Traeshon Holden, Kobe Prentice and Jermaine Burton all taking up significant target shares, so Earle's volume might not see a major jump on a week-to-week basis.

Makes trip, warming up
Earle (foot) made the trip to Arkansas and is going through warmups ahead of Saturday's game against the Razorbacks, Nick Kelly of the Tuscaloosa News reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has been back in practice recently and the fact that he traveled for a road game when there are travel roster restrictions suggests that there's a chance he plays Saturday. The sophomore suffered a foot injury in fall camp and the initial timetable was 6-to-8 weeks dating back to August 10.
Sep 28, 2022
Returns to practice
Alabama coach Nick Saban said Wednesday that Earle (foot) has been practicing this week and is day-to-day, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has yet to play for Alabama this season due to a foot injury. However, his return to practice likely means that he will make his debut Saturday against Arkansas or next week versus Texas A&M.

Working in pregame warmups
Earle (foot) is running routes during pregame warmups Saturday, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has been sidelined since suffering a Jones fracture in his foot during fall camp. The sophomore wideout should add wide receiver depth for the Crimson Tide when healthy this season.

Suffers Jones fracture in foot
Coach Nick Saban said that Earle got a Jones fracture in his foot this week and will be out for 6-8 weeks, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
This is a tough blow for this to happen at this point with the season right around the corner. Earle was having a very good camp to this point according to coach Saban. This will keep Earle out for at least the early part of the season. He will look to try and rehab and be ready to contribute when he can.

Catchless in return
Earle (undisclosed) had one target on 27 snaps against Cincinnati.
ANALYSIS
This marked Earle's first game action since Week 11 against New Mexico State, a span of five weeks. He played a significant amount of snaps but did not get into the box score. Look for Earle to have a role against Georgia in the national championship game.
Dec 31, 2021
Warming up pre-game
Earle (undisclosed) was seen warming up pre-game and coach Nick Saban is optimistic he will play in the playoff game against Cincinnati on Friday, Mike Rodak of AL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has not played in Alabama's last four games so even if he does see the field he may be pretty rusty and not see a whole lot of playing time. However, it is a good sign that he is participating in warmups and is likely to be active for this game.
Dec 30, 2021
Will be game-time decision
Earle (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Friday's game against Cincinnati, according to Barrett Sallee of CBS Sports.
ANALYSIS
Earle was one of the main threats in Alabama's passing attack earlier this season, but he hasn't recorded a catch since Week 6, though he's also been complicated by injuries of late. His presence in the Cotton Bowl will be determined closer to warmups.
Dec 28, 2021
Stepping up in practice
Earle (undisclosed) has been practicing, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has been one of the main wide receivers that has stepped up according to offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien in the wake of John Metchie's ACL injury. Earle missed some time the last handful of weeks due to injury but is looking good to be able to return in the Cotton Bowl on Friday against Cincinnati.
Dec 4, 2021
Taking part in warmups
Earle (undisclosed) is in uniform for warmups ahead of Saturday's SEC Championship Game versus Georgia, Charlie Potter of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle suffered an injury in mid-November and was expected to miss some time according to coach Nick Saban. No official timetable was given, but it appears the freshman, who is sporting a brace on his knee, could be a factor to some extent Saturday.
Nov 15, 2021
Will miss some time
Earle will not need surgery but will miss some time according to coach Nick Saban, Mike Rodak of AL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear what kind of injury that Earle is dealing with, but at least he was able to avoid surgery. He will definitely be out this week, and could miss the rest of the regular season. Agiye Hall and Javon Baker are other receivers that could step into the rotation while Earle is out.

Co-starter ahead of Week 1
Earle appears listed on the team's depth chart as a co-starter for the season opener Saturday at Miami, according to Charlie Potter of 247Sports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has been tipped to have a role right out of the gates as a true freshman and that might very well be the case, as he's listed in the season-opening depth chart as a co-starter for the slot role alongside Slade Bolden. Earle has drawn comparison to first-round pick Jaylen Waddle due to his playmaking ability.

Could play role as a freshman
Earle is expected to see time at receiver and punt returner in the 2021 season, 247 Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Earle has drawn the eye of the coaching staff as a true freshman who have compared him to first-round pick Jaylen Waddle. Earle's playmaking gives him a chance to see a role right out of the gates.
