Erick Smith - Missing fall camp Smith (undisclosed) is not active for Auburn's fall camp, Nathan King of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact It is unknown why Smith, a sophomore wide receiver, has missed Auburn's fall camp, though it ultimately may not matter in terms of the Tigers' depth. Nonetheless, his injury status will be in question going into their regular-season opener.

Christian Neptune - Out of non-contact jersey Neptune (shoulder) logged a contact practice Tuesday, Nathan King of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Neptune logging a non-contact practice indicates that he should be ready to go for the remainder of Auburn's fall camp. Ideally for the wide receiver, he can acclimate to top-level football just like he did with South Florida, where his one season's stats feature 335 receiving yards.

Tray Taylor - Late addition to Auburn Taylor has joined Auburn for the Tigers' 2026 season, Peter Rauterkus of AL.com reports.

Impact Under the NCAA's 2025 rules, Taylor would not be eligible for 2026 because of maximized collegiate eligibility. But with a recent ruling allowing all players an additional year of collegiate eligibility, that applies to the wide receiver, who will use said opportunity to join his first Power Conference team. Last season, with Troy, he logged 30 receptions (on 48 targets) for 499 yards and three touchdowns, establishing himself as a legitimate threat out wide. Whether Taylor can maintain a similar role, especially as a late addition to Auburn's program, remains unknown.

Christian Neptune - Expecting to return soon Neptune (shoulder) did not play in Friday's scrimmage but is expected to be back on the field soon, Nathan King of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Neptune has been working his way back from a shoulder surgery and has been sporting a non-contact jersey during practice. Reports indicate that the sophomore wide receiver will be available for the next scrimmage game. The USF transfer joins in after a productive freshman campaign where he totaled 38 receptions for 335 yards and one touchdown across 11 games.

Jonathan Echols - Sidelined during scrimmage Friday Echols (undisclosed) missed Auburn's scrimmage Friday due to an injury, Nathan King of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Echols' injury wasn't listed, but it was major enough to hold him out of an important scrimmage after being a limited participant earlier in the week. The transfer tight end is currently competing against fellow transfer Arlis Boardingham for the Tiger's starting job. An update should be made when the team practices again, and if he continues to miss time, Boardingham will take advantage and look to get ahead in the competition.

Nykahi Davenport - Held out of scrimmage Friday Davenport (undisclosed) was held out of Friday's scrimmage, according to Justin Hokanson of On3.com.

Impact Davenport was limited in Wednesday's practice and didn't participate in Friday's scrimmage, so it seems the Tigers are being cautious with the sophomore tailback. His involvement in practice over the next few days will determine whether Davenport will be able to handle a role in a complicated season opener at home against Baylor on Sep. 5.
