AUBURN, Ala. — Jovon Robinson was not present at Auburn’s first practice of preseason camp Wednesday.

The presumed starter at running back was not dressed out or present on the sidelines during the first practice of the preseason camp. His status for the remainder of preseason camp remains unknown. An Auburn spokesperson was unable to confirm his status. Auburn coach Gus Malzahn is scheduled to speak with reporters immediately following practice and is expected to address Robinson's absence.

Robinson rushed for 639 yards and three touchdowns last season. He eclipsed 90 yards or more in five of the final six games as he chewed into Peyton Barber’s role on the team.

Robinson earned MVP honors in the Birmingham Bowl with his 126-yard performance.
