How will Auburn's tight ends fit into Hugh Freeze's evolving offense in 2025?
In this episode of The Auburn Express, we dive deep into Auburn’s tight end room—breaking down each player, their roles, and how likely it is we’ll see 12 personnel this season.

With elite receiver talent like Cam Coleman, Eric Singleton, and Perry Thompson now flooding the Plains, will the tight ends take a backseat in Freeze’s offense? Or can veterans like Brandon Frazier finally break out in his sixth year?

🔸 Tight end depth chart: Ryan G, Tate Johnson, Preston Howard, Brandon Frazier
🔸 Former O-lineman Tate Johnson's conversion to H-back
🔸 Will Auburn ditch 12 personnel in favor of 10 or 11?
🔸 What it means for QB Jackson Arnold’s development
🔸 Why the TE room hasn’t developed like other positions under Freeze
🔸 How WR talent could force a shift in offensive philosophy

Plus, we look back at Fairweather, Luke Deal, and Michael Riley-Ducker—and what their usage says about Auburn’s TE development.

🎙️ Hosted by Mike G with insight from Tike Jones, this episode gives you everything you need to know about Auburn’s tight ends heading into a pivotal 2025 season.
