Strengths: Lindsey comes to Auburn as a coached-up player. His senior season at IMG gave him some high-level coaching that will prepare him for the SEC. His versatility could give him some reps at both defensive tackle and defensive end.

Our quick bio on Lindsey:

Possesses excellent hands to fend off offensive linemen. Lindsey also showcases some of the best moves of any defensive line recruit from the class of 2024. No doubt, he’s utilizing the coaching that’s coming his way.

Lindsey also has the frame to play 3-technique or strong side end, i.e. 5-technique. Depending on down and distance, and game situation, Auburn can move Lindsey into different positions to best utilize his skills. Look for him to be a player that is more than just a big body. Lindsey can rush the passer.
