Auburn wide receivers coach Kodi Burns isn’t worried about Kyle Davis making up for lost time.

Davis was the team’s top freshman receiver last season — 12 catches for 248 yards with two touchdowns — from the star-studded group of players the Tigers signed at the position in 2016.

Instead of competing for a starting job, Davis is away from the team dealing with “personal business.”

Davis was originally expected to miss only the first two weeks of spring camp, but coach Gus Malzahn announced on March 21 the receiver wouldn’t be back until the fall.
