Auburn’s steady specialist: Keaton McNutt brings elite snap pedigree and future upside
Keaton McNutt is a redshirt freshman long snapper at Auburn who entered college as a highly rated specialist, with Kohl’s noting his strong consistency and Auburn listing him as a backup who made his collegiate debut in the 2025 season against Mercer[1][8][13]. The big reason to care: long snappers rarely get headlines, but McNutt’s profile screams reliability, coachability, and upside—he was described as a hard worker and top-class recruiter out of East Coweta, and Auburn’s staff trusted him enough to get him on the field in 2025[1][10].
