Quarterback Jarrett Stidham led Auburn into its first spring practice of 2017 on Tuesday, taking snaps with the first-team offense in his new No. 8 jersey.
Stidham, who wore No. 3 at Baylor, is set to compete with Sean White for Auburn's starting gig. White has been on the shelf since the Sugar Bowl due to a broken arm.
Stidham threw for 1,265 yards and 12 touchdowns against two interceptions in limited action as a freshman two years ago.
