The Auburn football coaching staff has been working hard to bring extra talent and depth to the roster by way of the NCAA transfer portal. They started off strong during the winter portal window, adding 12 impact transfers, and have already gotten six transfers from the spring window.
While the headliner of the group is certainly former Michigan State quarterback Payton Thorne and the big story is the amount of wide receivers joining the team, head coach Hugh Freeze believes there is one defensive transfer that could come in strong and make an instant impact for the Tigers.
