Description

AUBURN ALERT: DJ Durkin just made a massive move for the program — Ashton Daniels will redshirt this season. That’s right, the talented young quarterback will sit to preserve a year of eligibility, and the decision could reshape Auburn Football heading into 2025.


In this week’s Auburn Express, we break down what this means for the Tigers, why Durkin’s QB philosophy is gaining attention, and how Duce Knight and Jackson Arnold could define the final stretch of the season. With the Iron Bowl looming, every snap matters.


Daniels’ redshirt is more than a roster move — it’s a statement. Durkin’s choice balances what’s best for the player and the program. Auburn now gets a look at Duce Knight’s electric arm and composure under Derek Nix’s new play-calling approach. Can this offense finally find its rhythm against Mercer before the showdown with Alabama?


Plus, we discuss how this could impact Auburn’s bowl eligibility, Durkin’s candidacy for the full-time job, and the long-term direction of the program. Fans will not want to miss this in-depth look at the next chapter of Auburn football.
