Auburn Tigers football: Keldric Faulk 2025 player profile
Auburn EDGE rusher Keldric Faulk is poised for first-round greatness in 2025.
Auburn football's NFL draft first-round drought extended to five years in 2025. However, Auburn EDGE rusher Keldric Faulk could change Auburn's luck in next year's draft.
USA TODAY Sports feels that Faulk could go as early as No. 6 overall in the 2026 NFL draft, where he would head to the Carolina Panthers. Other outlets, including CBS Sports, also view Faulk as a first-rounder for next year's draft.
It is easy to see why Faulk is regarded as a first-round pick. He has participated in every game of his two-year Auburn career, making starts in the last 20 games at defensive end. Faulk is as solid a pass rusher as he is a run-stopper. Over his career, Faulk has created 65 quarterback pressures with 46 hurries and eight sacks. He has also finished second behind Jalen McLeod in stopping the run with a 83.4 run-defense grade according to Pro Football Focus. Following McLeod's departure, Faulk is poised to be the Tigers' top pass rusher on this season's unit.
