Cam Newton put together one of the greatest single seasons in college football history at Auburn in 2010. The program has not officially retired his No. 2, but no player has worn it since he led the Tigers to the BCS national championship that season.
It certainly appears that Deuce Knight, a four-star Auburn quarterback signee in the 2025 recruiting class, is interested in wearing his namesake number. The Mississippi native wore No. 2 at George County High and was photographed in Newton's Auburn No. 2 during his visits to the program. Auburn posted Knight in the jersey after he officially signed with the program during this month's early signing period.
