Auburn offensive lineman Bradyn Joiner has officially entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, signaling a significant shift in the Tigers’ offensive line unit.
The 6-foot-2, 311-pound redshirt sophomore started six games at left guard during the 2024 season and earned a spot on the All-SEC Freshman Team. His decision to transfer adds to the growing list of Auburn players exploring new opportunities during the NCAA’s spring transfer window, which opened April 16 and closes on April 30.
Joiner, a former three-star prospect from Auburn High School, was ranked the top center in the 2023 recruiting class by Rivals. He committed to Auburn over notable programs such as Georgia, Kentucky, and Arkansas.
With Joiner’s departure, Auburn has now seen 23 players enter the portal since the end of the 2024 season, including offensive linemen EJ Harris and Percy Lewis. While the Tigers have brought in reinforcements via high school recruiting and the transfer portal, losing Joiner creates a clear void in both experience and depth up front.
As the transfer window remains open, Auburn’s coaching staff is expected to continue seeking help to strengthen the offensive line before the 2025 season kicks off.
