Jimbo Fisher, No. 6 Texas A&M seeking SEC superiority

Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher spent the offseason making headlines for a verbal spat with Alabama coach Nick Saban

Does not get first reps in drills Calzada took reps behind Finley in Tuesday's fall camp practice, OANow.com reports.

Impact Calzada is a definite contender to be Auburn's starting quarterback this season, but T.J. Finley was the player taking the first reps of drills in Tuesday's practice. Calzada took the second and third reps of drills with Robby Ashford, but this does not mean that Calzada will not be the starter come the end of fall camp.

Working to become QB1 Calzada is recovering from his shoulder injury and looking to become Auburn's starting quarterback this season, AL.com reports.

Impact Calzada transferred from Texas A&M this past offseason and has entered one of the most competitive quarterback battles in college football. He is competing with T.J. Finley, Oregon transfer Robby Ashford and true freshman Holden Geriner. Calzada started off the spring at a disadvantage because he was limited due to a shoulder injury, but now that he is healthy he arguably poses the largest threat to Finley. Calzada ended the 2021 season with 2,185 yards and 17 touchdowns and has shown he is very capable of holding a starting quarterback position.

Full go for summer Calzada will participate fully in Auburn's summer practices, per Tom Green of AL.com

Impact Calzada's return adds some intrigue to the Tigers' summer quarterback competition. After sitting out the spring game, he now has a chance to win the starting job outright. When Calzada was sidelined for the spring game, T.J. Finley ran with the first team offense. The competition will likely come down to those two, as they are the only quarterbacks on the roster with prior SEC starting experience.

Auburn's Finley facing challenge from transfer quarterbacks

APRIL 9, 2022 • Associated Press

Will miss spring game Calzada (shoulder) is expected to miss Auburn's spring game, Glen Guilbeau of Outkick.com reports.

Impact The sophomore continues to nurse the shoulder injury he suffered last season. With Calzada out, T.J. Finley will be the starter for the spring game. Missing the opportunity to make an impression in the spring game hurts Calzada in the race for starting quarterback, but the esteemed transfer from Texas A&M should still get every chance to earn the job once healthy.

Managing shoulder injury Coach Bryan Harsin said Friday that Caldaza is unable to participate in live drills during spring practice due to a shoulder injury, Tom Green of AL.com reports.

Impact While Calzada has been limited early this spring, it's not yet clear whether he'll be sidelined for the team's spring game on April 9. Once he's healthy, the transfer from Texas A&M will compete with T.J. Finley to serve as Auburn's starting quarterback in 2022.
