Auburn's Woody Barrett: Likely headed for redshirt season

Barrett will likely redshirt this season, Tom Green of AL.com reports.

Analysis:

The true freshman arrived on campus this summer and faced an uphill battle at trying to beat out three upperclassmen for the starting job. Offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee didn't exactly sugarcoat Barrett's development when asked Thursday, saying, "It's probably a little early, but he's way behind," when asked about the possibility of Barrett redshirting. While a decision on the redshirt has not been made at this point, it's more likely than not that Barrett won't truly factor into Auburn's quarterback conversation until 2017.
