Former Auburn QB Tyler Queen announces his transfer decision

Maybe the injuries are behind him.

Tyler Queen, the former Auburn quarterback whose career with the Tigers never really got off the ground, has a new team.

West Georgia is a Div. II school and plays in the Gulf South Conference. In 2016, the team was 7-4 overall (4-4 in conference).

Queen, a native of Kennesaw, Ga.,  was a three-star recruit out of high school and wasn't expected to play much at Auburn. He certainly would have been behind former five-star Baylor quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who will be eligible in 2017 after sitting out last season.

He has to redshirt as a freshman after suffering an injury to his throwing shoulder that required surgery. That came on the heels of an elbow injury that also slowed him down.

He played in two games in his Auburn career.
