Here we go again, with another edition of War Eagle Watch.

It was another big week for some of Auburn's commits, with a couple new names added to the list recently with Kendarius Reddick and Kaleb Harris. However, one Auburn commit in particular went off and carried his team to victory with a game-winning touchdown reception.

This week's Big Cat of the Week is wide receiver Malcolm Simmons, for his incredible performance against Briarwood Christian.

Walker White, 2024 QB (Little Rock, Ark. — Little Rock Christian)

He also added 15 yards rushing as the Warriors won big, 58-3.

J'Marion Burnette, 2024 RB (Andalusia, Ala.)
