Cobb's Surge Could Power Auburn | Auburn Tigers Football News

Auburn’s rushing attack is poised to explode in 2026, led by senior running back Jeremiah Cobb—last year’s workhorse who nearly hit 1,000 yards and is hungry for that milestone. After a slow start with just 314 yards in his first two seasons, Cobb tripled his output last year as the featured back, and now he’s got elite support from Baylor transfer Bryson Washington and South Florida’s Nykahi Davenport, plus mobile QB Byrum Brown. Standing at 5’11”, 205 lbs, Cobb combines powerful runs with solid pass-blocking and consistent PFF grades (84.3 rushing last season), making him a complete offensive weapon. With a stacked backfield and a clear path to dominance, Auburn fans should watch this unit closely as they aim for big things on the ground in 2026.
