<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Defensive end Carl Lawson had surgery for a torn ACL in May.

<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Malzahn says he's hopeful that Lawson will recover before the end of the season, but odds are that's not the case. Lawson is likely going to miss the entire 2014 season.

<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a freshman in 2013 Lawson finished the year with only 20 tackles, but 7.5 of them were for loss, and four were sacks. He also had seven quarterback hurries and forced two fumbles.

We have known about this for 2 months on the Auburn board. Funny these kids go out to eat on crutches everyone knows. Auburn has 4 DE coming in from the recruiting class.One is a All American Jr. College player.

 

Ford will be missed but as I have stated before on here before the draft. Ford was injured nearly his whole career except the last 9 games of his Senior year.
