Auburn starting WR leaving as transfer, taking advantage of redshirt rule
One of Auburn’s starting wide receivers is taking advantage of the new redshirt rules and will be transferring out of the program.
AL.com’s Matt Zenitz reported on Thursday that junior Nate Craig-Myers is leaving the program and will take a redshirt season, which will allow him to have two years of eligibility left in his college career.
Craig-Myers had just two catches for 39 yards this season after catching 16 passes for 285 yards and three touchdowns as a sophomore.
The relaxed new redshirt rule, which allows players to participate in four games and still redshirt, has resulted in more players transferring. Tight end Jalen Harris also announced this week that he is leaving the Auburn program.
