Auburn has added a defensive back transfer from an ACC school to its roster. The Tigers have signed former Georgia Tech DB Taye Seymore, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.

Seymore appeared in 10 games this season and finished fifth on the Yellow Jackets team in tackles with 46. He also had 3 tackles for loss and 2 pass breakups.

Taye Seymore originally signed with Georgia Tech after being ranked as a three-star recruit and the No. 38 athlete in the country in the class of 2023, per the On3 Industry Rankings.

He is joining an Auburn program that is looking to build off of its 5-7 record in Year 2 under Hugh Freeze. The Tigers have been active in the portal and Seymore is the latest example of that.

As a freshman in 2023, Taye Seymore appeared in nine games, contributing mostly on special teams. He finished the season with five tackles for the Yellow Jackets.

Seymore saw his role really increase for 2024 as he played in 10 games and made seven starts. Now he will look to continue that momentum as he heads to Auburn.

Miami (OH) transfer CB Raion Strader signs with Auburn

Taye Seymore wasn’t the only secondary piece Auburn added from the transfer portal on Monday.

CB Raion Strader has signed with Auburn out of the NCAA Transfer Portal per On3’s Pete Nakos.

This comes after Strader visited The Plains over the weekend. Now, after leaving earlier today, the Tigers have earned his commitment over interest from programs like Ole Miss among other schools in the Power Four and Group of Five.

Strader spent his pair of seasons as an underclassman playing at Miami (OH). He appeared in 25 games in the Redhawks’ secondary in that span.

In total, Strader posted 110 tackles, 29 deflections, and a trio of interceptions. He led their defense in deflections in each year while being top-three in picks and top-ten in tackles during both.
