  Draft Scout by Conference









  Auburn offensive lineman Brandon Council made an instant impact as a transfer last fall until he suffered a season-ending knee injury in late October. Although the months that followed were difficult, the senior seems well set to pick up right where he left off. Council discussed his injury rehab and his mindset entering the season on Wednesday. While the physical toll that came with tearing the ACL in his left knee - and later suffering a torn labrum in his shoulder - was considerable, Council explained the pain wasn't the only thing he had to overcome. "It was just really a mental game coming back from that injury," Council said. "Dr. [James] Andrews fixed me up real well. Rehab was tough in the beginning, but I got through it. I'm back probably better than ever; I just have to get back in that game shape now. My knee has been fine, really."

Council was one of several Auburn players who were forced to play catch-up in the summer and fall due to limitations in the spring. Shoulder surgery left Council sporting a sling during spring practice and put an even greater emphasis on what he could do in the last few months before the season started. Based on what senior center Nick Brahms has seen so far, Council has met the expectations those watching him work. "Brandon has always been an athletic guy, and I don't think he's lost a step," Brahms said on Friday. "He did all of the conditioning and stuff with us this summer. He was 100 percent a lot of the summer. I think he did a good job today. He's working at different positions. He'll definitely contribute this year." - Opelika-Auburn News
