Caylin Newton made a huge play for Auburn in the third quarter of the Tigers’ game against Georgia State.

Newton, who is Cam Newton’s brother, broke through on the right side and blocked a Panthers’ punt, which led to an Auburn recovery and touchdown in the end zone. It cut the deficit to 24-19, as Barton Lester made the recovery with 4:44 remaining in the third quarter.

Caylin Newton is a graduate transfer from Howard, who is listed as a receiver and special teams player on kickoff return and punt return.

The play gave Auburn a spark, and with the fourth quarter on tap, and Auburn replacing Bo Nix at quarterback with T.J. Finley, the Tigers may have just the bounce to pull this one out.
