AUBURN, Alabama\u2014A four-year starter at center who returned for a sixth season with the Auburn Tigers, Nick Brahms<\/b> Has decided to call it quits on his career because of lingering knee issues coming off a surgery last December that kept him out of the bowl game against Houston. With seven different surgeries dating back to his high school days in Navarre, Florida, Brahms decided enough was enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Brahms is “officially done with football,” Bryan Harsin<\/b> told reporters Monday afternoon.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Already with his degree in the College of Business’ aviation program and his masters in business administration, Brahms is set to become a pilot like his father Keith as he moves into life after football. Brahms is also recently engaged.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Playing in 40 career games with 33 starts during his five seasons at Auburn, Brahms leaves a gaping hole in the middle of the line of scrimmage for the Tigers with only Jalil Irvin<\/b> having starting experience in the system after getting the nod in the Birmingham Bowl. Irvin has played in 18 career games.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

junior Tate Johnson<\/b>, who has played in one career game in his first two years with the Tigers, is listed on as the starting center on the team’s official depth chart. veteran Jalil Irvin<\/b> is listed second on the depth chart along with <\/span>redshirt sophomore Avery Jernigan<\/b>. A redshirt sophomore, Jernigan has yet to play in a game in his career at Auburn while Irvin started last year’s bowl game against the Houston Cougars.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The wildcard at the position is 7th year senior Brandon Council<\/b>. Council transferred to Auburn from Akron and while there saw some time at center. In his two seasons with the Tigers he has played exclusively at guard, but has been limited to nine total games while dealing with a variety of issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
