Auburn's Bryson Washington shows improvement in scrimmage, per coach Golesh
Summary

Auburn football coach Alex Golesh noted positive progress from Bryson Washington during a recent preseason scrimmage on August 19. Washington, a Baylor transfer, missed significant training time but is improving as he works his way into playing shape. Golesh indicated that Washington had a strong performance, particularly in demonstrating physicality during drills. With Jeremiah Cobb taking limited reps, Washington joined Omar Mabson II in the first-unit offense. This development comes as Washington aims to reclaim a key role in Auburn's running back rotation before the start of the season.
