As the Auburn Tigers are adding players via recruiting and the transfer portal some attrition is inevitable including the latest defensive back.

Auburn redshirt freshman safety C.J. Johnson has become the latest Tiger to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Christian Clemente of 247Sports was first to report the news. In his two years with the Tigers, Johnson saw no in game action.

Auburn landed a commitment from wide receiver Eric Singleton, the No. 1 receiver and No. 3 overall player in the 247Sports Transfer Rankings. With his addition, the Tigers have the nation's No. 4 transfer class with 15 commits.

Top transfer portal target Eric Singleton Jr., who led Georgia Tech in receiving each of the past two seasons, is on his way to Auburn, the school announced Monday.

Singleton is shorter than Lambert-Smith at 5-foot-11, but his athleticism still makes him dangerous as a jump ball target. He made seven contested catches on 16 contested catch targets in 2024, the same number as Lambert-Smith, but on two more targets, according to Pro Football Focus.

The Auburn football team has entered the offseason as they failed to qualify for a bowl game this season. The Tigers have been recruiting the high school level very well recently, but there is another area that they need to recruit well in now: the transfer portal.
