Auburn's offensive line suffered its first major injury of the spring.

Backup center Nick Brahms suffered a broken leg and is out for the remainder of spring, a source confirmed to AL.com.

Brahms, a redshirt-freshman, was competing for the starting job with Kaleb Kim and Tucker Brown, who was in an orange non-contact jersey on Thursday.

Auburn Undercover first reported the injury to Brahms, who is the fourth Auburn player to suffer a major injury this spring, joining wide receivers Eli Stove and Will Hastings, who both tore anterior cruciate ligaments, and defensive lineman Daquon Newkirk, who tore his Achilles before spring began.
