Alabama receiver Julio Jones has undergone surgery to repair a sports hernia.

A spokesman for the football team confirmed Monday that Jones had the surgery. He is expected to be back for fall camp.

Jones was the Crimson Tides leading receiver as a freshman with 58 catches for 924 yards. He was a second-team Associated Press All-Southeastern Conference pick.

Jones was instantly one of the Tides most popular players. He won a seat on the Student Government Associations senate through write-in votes.
