Lewis departs Auburn after appearing in 10 games during the 2024 season. He allowed eight total quarterback pressures, which resulted in four sacks and three additional quarterback hurries. He is the second offensive lineman from the 2024 season to enter the transfer portal, joining EJ Harris.

The Tigers currently have the No. 4 transfer portal class according to 247Sports’ transfer portal rankings. Auburn has added 14 players while 18 players have departed from the program.

Oklahoma State has picked up a unique offensive weapon in the transfer portal. On Saturday, OSU earned a commitment from Auburn transfer wide receiver Sam Jackson. Jackson entered the portal after only one season at Auburn and has an interesting career path as he enters his fifth season of college football.

Sam Houston's Chris Murray had a productive 2024, logging career-highs in tackles for loss and sacks. He's transferring to Auburn football, and he'll follow in the footsteps of some prolific mid-major pass rushers making the jump to the SEC.
