Bryce Deas is Auburn’s next-edge linebacker with juice and upside
In the 2025 season, Bryce Deas flashed as a rotational Auburn linebacker, appearing in 11 games and finishing with 12 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, and 2 pass breakups; his best game came at Vanderbilt, where he posted a career-high 4 tackles and 1.0 TFL. He entered Auburn as a three-star recruit, but the fun part is the athletic profile: people around the program describe him as a violent hitter with unusual acceleration, and his background as a captain at St. Frances plus special-teams value suggests a high-motor, competitive fit for a defense that wants speed and punch.
