Auburn QB Bo Nix enters transfer portal

Bo Nix, Auburn’s starting quarterback for the past three seasons, announced Sunday that he will enter the NCAA transfer portal.

“I have made so many decisions for Auburn, and now it’s time to do what’s best for me. It’s time that I move on to the next chapter in my life,” Nix said in a video posted to Instagram. “To reach further goals, I’ve decided it’s best to be a grad transfer and find a new start somewhere else.”

Nix graduated Auburn early and said he will be a graduate transfer in 2022.

In 34 games for the Tigers, Nix has thrown for 7,251 yards, 39 touchdowns and 16 interceptions, adding 18 rushing scores. In 2021, he completed a career-best 61 percent of his passes for 2,294 yards, 11 touchdowns and three picks with four rushing touchdowns as Auburn finished 6-6.
