Report: Auburn’s injury woes continue, Kaleb Kim may miss the rest of spring practice
Auburn just can’t seem to shake the injury bug.
This spring has been a costly one thus far for the Tigers as a number of projected contributors have gone down to injury on The Plains this offseason. The latest victim is offensive lineman Kaleb Kim. According to Matt Zenitz of AL.com, Kim could miss the rest of spring practice after spraining his ankle during Auburn’s weekend scrimmage.
Kim is competing to replace last season’s senior center, Casey Dunn. Dunn started at center in 10 of Auburn’s final 11 games in 2017. Kim had been competing at center with redshirt freshman Nick Brahms before Brahms was lost for the spring due to injury as well.
Starting quarterback Jarrett Stidham is still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery while receivers Eli Stove and Will Hastings suffered torn ACLs this spring and Daquan Newkirk tore his Achilles.
