Summary
Auburn’s linebacker future just got a major upgrade with four-star freshman Jaquez Wilkes, the top-ranked recruit in his class and one of the nation’s top five linebackers. Already impressing coaches with his speed and instincts, Wilkes could leap into the starting lineup as early as 2026—following in the footsteps of Demarcus Riddick’s meteoric rise. With versatility to contribute on special teams and a front-row seat to learning from one of college football’s best linebacker rooms, Wilkes is primed for a breakout season, starting with a big test against Southern Mississippi.
