Big body on the outside. That's what Shane Hooks is.

Hooks was Coach Deion Sanders and Jackson State's leading receiver in 2022, reeling in 64 passes for 748 yards and ten touchdowns.

He played 711 snaps on the outside while only playing 11 snaps in the slot.

Hooks also played at Ohio where he recorded 665 yards and six receiving touchdowns over the course of two seasons.

Hooks has a very real shot at leading Auburn in receiving this season even with the other additions surrounding him.
