The injury occurred in a 28-27 loss to Auburn in November. After surgery, Barron spent the spring in a black non-contact jersey and participated in drills to the point of contact.
Despite missing Alabama's 49-7 win against Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl, Barron finished with a team-leading 75 tackles.
So what's his status entering fall camp?
"I'm fine," Barron said. "It's almost 100 percent. I'm not saying it's 100 percent, there's probably some scar tissue that needs to heal."
Asked if he believed he would be cleared for contact once hitting begins in August, Barron said, "If I had to guess I don't think I'd still be in a black jersey."
