Auburn QB Tyler Queen Announces He Will Transfer

Auburn quarterback Tyler Queen announced Tuesday that he will transfer to another school.

Queen made the decision public with the following tweet:

The Georgia native joined the Tigers in 2015, but elbow and shoulder injuries prevented him from making an impact.

Queen didn't attempt a pass last season, but he did have one rush for 11 yards in a 55-0 win over Alabama A&M.

In 2014, Scout.com listed Queen as a 4-star prospect and the No. 22 quarterback in his class prior to committing to Auburn.

Queen was expected to compete for Auburn's starting quarterback job ahead of the 2017 campaign.

As part of a crowded quarterback depth chart that also includes returning starter Sean White, Baylor transfer Jarrett Stidham, Woody Barrett, Malik Willis and John Franklin III, however, Queen's opportunities may have been limited.
