Auburn defensive lineman Dre Butler has entered the transfer portal

Auburn’s defensive lineman enters the transfer portal.

After a strong week of building up and keeping the defensive line room full, Dre Butler is entering the transfer portal.

Butler transferred from Independence Community College to The Plains with the hopes of being used as a versatile force on the defensive front. During his time at Auburn, his path to playing time was blocked by others climbing the depth chart.

This news comes after Colby Wooden, Derick Hall, and Marquis Burks all announced that they were staying for another season. The Tigers also added Jayson Jones to the defensive front after he transferred from Oregon.

Butler will more than likely look for a clearer path to playing time at his next school in 2022.
