Auburn Gains Linebacker Experience, Boosts Defense

Published 1 month ago
Description

Auburn football bolsters linebacker group with Michael Matthews-Canty, adding experience and talent to a position that held up well during the transfer portal frenzy. Matthews-Canty, who racked up 102 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and 5.5 tackles for loss at Hampton, joins a loaded room with returners like Elijah Melendez, Bryce Deas, Demarcus Reddick, and Xavier Atkins. The addition of Matthews-Canty helps offset the loss of Robert Woodyard, who transferred to Missouri. Auburns massive portal haul, including quarterbacks Byrum Brown and Locklan Hewlett, wide receivers Christian Neptune and Kory Pettigrew, and linemen from schools like Ole Miss, LSU, and Michigan State, positions the Tigers defense for a big leap in the upcoming season.
