He also managed 311 yards and eight scores on the ground. Arnold has one more year of eligibility remaining and should be a candidate to remain at a Power 5 school.

Little action in win over Mercer Arnold completed 3 of 5 passes for 31 yards during Saturday's 62-17 win versus Mercer. He also had three rushes for 53 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Auburn focused on giving their highly touted freshman Deuce Knight the bulk of the work against Mercer. Arnold saw very little action in this one and barring anything catastrophic next week likely won't see any more action on the season.

Coming off bench vs. Mercer Arnold will serve as the primary backup during Saturday's matchup against Mercer, per Pete Nakos of On3.com.

Impact Arnold will begin the game on the bench as the primary backup to freshman Deuce Knight against Mercer. Arnold began the season as the primary starter for Auburn before appearing to lose the job to freshman signal caller Ashton Daniels following Auburn's contest against Arkansas in Week 9. With Daniels sidelined to preserve a redshirt, Arnold appears set to serve as the primary backup for the remainder of the season, barring significant struggles from Knight.

Not first QB in drills Arnold is not Auburn's first quarterback in practice drills Tuesday, Justin Ferguson of AuburnObserver.com reports.

Impact Usually, the first quarterback of a practice session indicates who a team will start under center for its next game. Instead of Arnold, Auburn's primary QB1 on Tuesday is Deuce Knight. Ashton Daniels (redshirt) is out indefinitely, so his absence opens up an opportunity for Arnold to start, but that is looking less likely going into Week 13 against Mercer.

Impact After Ashton Daniels took over at QB during the second half of last week's contest, Arnold found himself watching from the sidelines at the start of this game against Kentucky. Arnold came in briefly for two series in the second half and didn't have much success as both ended in punts. Daniels would finish out the game at QB after two sputtering drives from Arnold.

Impact Arnold was benched in Auburn's 33-24 win over Arkansas this past Saturday for position mate Ashton Daniels after the pair split reps in practice ahead of the matchup. Arnold and Daniels will now likely split reps again this upcoming week, before the Tigers' coaching staff lands on their starter for this weekend's home game. The winning play caller should be determined later this week.
