Texas A&M is at Kyle Field on Saturday as it prepares for an SEC contest against Auburn. However, the Aggies will be without 2 primary contributors for this one.
Per 247Sports’ Nathan King, wide receiver Noah Thomas didn’t dress for warmups and won’t play against the Tigers. Thomas has totaled 4 touchdown catches so far in 2023.
Also, safety Jardin Gilbert is out after being hospitalized earlier in the week, Travis L. Brown reports. Gilbert made 61 tackles and recorded 2 interceptions as a sophomore in 2022. Thus far in 2023, he’s made 5 tackles, 1 for a loss, but missed Week 3’s game against Louisiana-Monroe.
The Aggies are 2-1 on the season as they’ll face primarily all SEC teams from here on out with 1 exception. After beating New Mexico to start the year, they fell to Miami before getting back in the win column against Louisiana-Monroe.
Kickoff from Kyle Field is set for noon ET, with Saturday’s game set to be televised on ESPN.
Texas A&M WR Noah Thomas is not dressed out today against Auburn.
Thomas leads the Aggies with four receiving touchdowns this year.

No Texas A&M S Jardin Gilbert in warmups. He posted on social media this week a selfie laying in what appeared to be a hospital bed with the caption "Been a crazy month." Did not play against ULM.
