Newton’s No. 2 will join Pat Sullivan (No. 7), Bo Jackson (No. 34) and Terry Beasley (No. 88). Sullivan and Beasley’s jerseys were retired following Sullivan’s 1971 Heisman season, and Jackson’s jersey was retired during Auburn’s football centennial in 1992.
“Auburn will always be home to me,” Newton said. “The national championship we won in 2010 was a special moment, and to have my jersey retired alongside legends like Pat Sullivan, Bo Jackson, and Terry Beasley
