A player we have not seen on the field recently for Auburn is JD Rhym.
Head coach Hugh Freeze revealed the cornerback is currently working through “personal issues,” explaining his absence on Saturdays.
Now, there is a decision on Rhym’s future that Freeze has to make.
JD and I are working through some personal issues,” Freeze said during Wednesday’s SEC Coaches Teleconference.
“It’s week to week and I think he’s got the potential to be a really good contributor to our team.
Simply the level of respect we expect for all our players.
We’re at the point now where you’re wondering whether you should redshirt him or not.
Here’s a little bit of what we’re facing at the moment.
I think he’s played three games, so we’re trying to get that out of the way right now.
No problem right now, it’s just what’s best for him and our team in the long run.
According to Auburn’s official website, Rhym has played in four games this year.
His most recent appearance came against LSU on October 14, where he made a season-high three tackles.
Rhym recorded six total tackles and even had an interception in the season opener against Samford.
But he played four games.
This means that if he returns to the field, his red shirt chances will be burned.
The Tigers have three games remaining in the regular season, starting with a trip to Arkansas.
