Auburn Backfield Ready to Dominate | Auburn Tigers Football News

Auburn’s 2026 running back corps is shaping up to be a game-changer under new coach Alex Golesh, featuring a stacked group led by near-1,000-yard rusher Jeremiah Cobb, plus top transfer Bryson Washington, starters Nykahi Davenport and Tae Meadows, and highly touted sophomore Omar Mabson. With depth and versatility, they’re poised to rotate like Auburn’s defense did last year, keeping defenses off-balance. Cobb will likely carry the load, but Washington, Davenport, and Meadows are primed to make big impacts. Their opener against Baylor will be a true test, and the trio of Cobb, Washington, and QB Byrum Brown—who each have over 1,000 career rushing yards—are a rare and potent combination.
