Auburn announces depth chart for Iron Bowl
The Auburn Tigers are looking to close out the regular season with a bang when they take on the Alabama Crimson Tide in the ___ edition of the Iron Bowl
The Tigers are looking to put their shocking 31-10 loss to New Mexico State behind them and are making some changes on the offensive depth chart. The Tigers are shaking up the starting rotation at all three wide receiver spots, with each featuring multiple starters.
Caleb Burton III is now listed as a starter at slot receiver, while Malcolm Johnson Jr. and Camden brown are now possible starters at the outside spots.
All three of them have seen their roles increase recently as Hugh Freeze and Co. look to spark a struggling passing attack.
