It was a busy week for Auburn commits.
There wasn't a bye week amongst any of the commits in both the 2025 and 2026 classes, as the future Tigers were once again in action. Plenty of commits had big weeks — Alvin Henderson continued his tear and multiple commits had defensive touchdowns, but one performance sticks out above the rest.
Shadarius Toodle is this week's Big Cat of the Week for an absolutely massive game on both sides of the ball. Here's how Toodle did, along with several other Auburn commits.
Shadarius Toodle, 2026 OLB — Mobile, Ala.
What a game for Auburn's highest-rated commit in the 2026 class. Toodle had an impressive game all around; he compiled 20 tackles with a tackle for loss on defense and five receptions for 57 yards offensively, along with a couple of rushes for eight yards.
