Auburn sophomore quarterback Kodi Burns suffered a cut in his leg that required stitches during Saturday’s win over ULM.
As expected, quarterback Kodi Burns didn’t practice Monday.
Burns suffered a cut on his right leg last Saturday and received stitches in the locker room.
Tuberville said Burns is “questionable” for this weekend’s game against Southern Miss. Sunday, Tuberville said he expected the
sophomore back in practice by today, but he seemed less certain Monday.
“He’s just real, real, real sore,” Tuberville said. “It’s pretty deep. There’s no swelling, but he’s a ways away.”
Most of Auburn’s other injured players also didn’t practice. Defensive end A.J. Greene (hamstring), wideouts James Swinton (knee) and Montez Billings (hamstring) and fullback John Douglas (knee) all sat out Monday’s workout.
“We’ll have to wait and see how they progress during the week,” Tuberville said.
Tailback Tristan Davis (ankle) and linebacker Merrill Johnson (hamstring) both practiced Monday, according to Tuberville.
