Deuce Knight, a dual-threat QB with 401 total yards and six touchdowns in 2025, joins Ole Miss to bolster depth after NCAA ruling impacted their quarterback lineup.
- On Jan. 11, 2026, Deuce Knight committed to Ole Miss via the transfer portal and will face Auburn Tigers football program on Oct. 31, 2026.
- A former five-star recruit, Deuce Knight was Auburn's highest-rated signee in 2025 and entered the transfer portal a few weeks ago following coaching changes from Hugh Freeze to Alex Golesh.
- In his lone start on Nov. 22 against Mercer, Deuce Knight threw for 239 passing yards and rushed for 162 yards, producing 401 total offense with six touchdowns.

- Auburn has countered Knight's exit by adding former South Florida quarterback Byrum Brown and other transfers this past week, while likely targeting the transfer portal for depth ahead of the 2026 season.
