WATCH: Jackson Arnold talks Auburn QB battle, expectations for the offense and more
AUBURN — Auburn quarterback Jackson Arnold met the media on Wednesday as the Tigers’ A-Day approaches. Arnold talked about the QB battle this spring, competing with Deuce Knight, whether he feels pressure to improve Auburn’s offense, why he chose the Tigers’ program and much more.
Intel coming from the spring is important. We heard plenty of intel coming from winter workouts. If those players creating buzz in the workouts then show it on the field, you know you’ve got something. Freshmen, transfers, returnees altogether, these are the ten players I’m hearing the most about right now.

“The way he slings it is crazy.”
“His arm is serious.”
“He’s ahead of the game for a freshman.”
“Auburn will be just fine if Deuce has to play.”
It certainly helps that Knight is one of two quarterbacks getting the majority of the reps. He’s been consistent, flashed elite athleticism, elite arm strength, and has kept the ball clean in live settings. He is the eye-catcher of the spring, no doubt.
