AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn fans held their breath Saturday when starting right tackle Darius James went down with a neck injury in the second quarter of Saturday’s 24-10 win over Mercer. The senior had to be carted off the field and taken to East Alabama Medical Center for further evaluation.

However, James got a good report, per Auburn coach Gus Malzahn, and was back with the team in the locker room after the game.

“It was scary,” fellow offensive lineman Casey Dunn said.
