Auburn enjoyed a massive win against Baylor in its season opener, setting the pace for 2025. Unfortunately, some bad news did come from Waco as head coach Hugh Freeze revealed defensive back Champ Anthony broke his thumb. Surgery was required, meaning Anthony will miss some time.
Fast forward a couple of days and Freeze provided another update on Anthony. He revealed the timeline after Anthony underwent a successful procedure. Eventually, the goal will be to get him back out there with a cast on.
“I mean, it’s just an estimate, obviously but the procedure went well,” Freeze said. “He’s got a big cast on right now and next week, they will reevaluate and see. The hope is that he will be able to play in a cast after two weeks, hopefully. That’s the goal but it will be in a cast.”
