10/28/20 - ILB K.J. Britt, Sr/2021, Auburn

K.J. Britt stood beside Owen Pappoe as he led a pregame huddle on the field at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Saturday morning. Just minutes earlier, he watched on as his fellow teammates went through pregame warmups, patting several on the back and offering words of encouragement before kickoff against Ole Miss. Britt wasn't in uniform for Auburn's 35-28 win, but after not being present for the last two games following thumb surgery on Oct. 9, the Tigers' senior linebacker and team captain made the trip to Oxford, Miss. He's not expected back until late this season, but his presence on the sideline Saturday was meaningful for the Tigers in a make-or-break game. "K.J.'s one of our team leaders, and just to have him back is a blessing for us," sophomore linebacker Owen Pappoe said. "In the locker room, in the hotel, on the way here, he's just that energizer bunny for us, just keeping us pumped. If you look around on the field, he just calms us down, you know? It was really good to have him back on the field with us."

Britt was Auburn's leading tackler through two games, and he was an All-SEC selection at linebacker heading into the season. He injured his thumb during the early-season loss to Georgia - when he played through the injury to finish the game - but underwent surgery less than a week later. Losing him was a tough blow for Auburn's defense, given his acumen against the run as well as the overall leadership and energy he provides. On a younger defense replacing six starters from last season, Britt was a steadying force. "His presence is really special," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. "He's our team leader, not just offense, defense, special teams. But his presence was really big today." - Birmingham News
