Auburn Signs Ole Miss Transfer Da'Shawn Womack to Bolster Edge Rush

A three-year SEC defender arrives to help fill front-seven gaps created by last season’s departures.

Overview

  • Womack’s signing was confirmed Saturday by AL.com and the Montgomery Advertiser after he entered the transfer portal.
  • Auburn is retooling its front seven after losing its top two defensive ends and top two buck linebackers from the 2025 roster.
  • The Baltimore native spent two seasons at LSU before a 2025 stint at Ole Miss and offers versatility to play defensive end or buck linebacker.
  • He posted career bests in 2025 with 27 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss and 2 sacks and holds career totals of 48 tackles, 7 TFL and 4.5 sacks.
  • He becomes Auburn’s second SEC edge addition this offseason, joining Missouri transfer Nate Johnson, with the signing allowed despite the portal entry window closing Friday.
