A remarkable moment this afternoon prior to Auburn Football's home game against Mercer today:

Running Back Brian Battie walked onto the field at Jordan-Hare Stadium to the roar of the Auburn Family. In May 2024, Battie and his brother were both shot in Battie's hometown of Sarasota, FL. Tragically, his brother Tommie did not survive. Brian suffered a gunshot wound to the head, and suffered a traumatic brain injury.

Doctors thought initially that he would be permanently paralyzed on the right side of his body. He was walking within 3 weeks, and he was walking on the field that he played on this afternoon.
