Auburn Adds CB Andre Jordan Jr., Edge Nate Johnson and DT Saint Farrior as Portal Class Reaches 19

Coach Alex Golesh says the overhaul is about halfway complete with line help the priority before the Jan. 16 portal deadline.

Overview

  • UCLA cornerback Andre Jordan Jr. signed Saturday, giving Auburn an experienced starter who led the Big Ten with 10 pass breakups in 2025.
  • Former Missouri outside linebacker Nate Johnson became the first SEC-to-Auburn addition this cycle, bringing past All–Sun Belt production off the edge.
  • Appalachian State defensive lineman Saint Farrior committed to bolster the interior, becoming the second defensive line transfer alongside Cody Sigler.
  • North Carolina tight end Jake Johnson joined the class to add a proven pass-catching option, while USF star receiver Keshaun Singleton also signed to reunite with QB Byrum Brown.
  • James Madison tackle Joseph Simmons signed to join Stanton Ramil on the offensive line as Golesh targets more trench additions, with the update coming as former Auburn receiver Eric Singleton Jr. signed with Florida.
