Auburn will be without one of its cornerbacks for the rest of spring practice according to [autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag].
Freeze announced on Monday that sophomore cornerback [autotag]J.D. Rhym[/autotag] just got out of a brace and is expected to miss the final two weeks of spring practice with an undisclosed injury.
“I don’t think he’ll be a part of the rest of spring ball,” Freeze told Tom Green of AL.com. “I think it will be after that before he’s released to get back with us.”
The 6-foot-1, 184-pound Rhym appeared in 12 games as a true freshman, making 14 tackles and defending one pass. He primarily played nickel.
The Valdosta, Georgia native was a four-star recruit in Auburn’s 2022 recruiting class and was the Tiger’s second-highest-ranked signee.
Auburn’s spring practice will come to a close on April 8 with the annual A-Day game in Jordan-Hare Stadium. It will be streamed on ESPN+ and SEC Network+ or fans can purchase a ticket for $10.
