College career

Cox committed to Auburn in 2014, and made his college debut in the 2015 season. He played in only 3 games in his freshman year, making 3 catches for 25 yards and having no carries. 2016 was more eventful for Cox, though, as he started in 8 games that season, getting 4 catches for 41 yards and rushing a season-high 7 times for 15 yards and his first career touchdown. The Tigers also tried some trick plays with Cox throwing passes, but he threw one interception and a completion for -3 yards. 2017 was better in terms of receptions, as Cox caught 8 passes for 78 yards, and he only had one carry for no gain. In his senior season, in 2018, Cox had easily his best year, racking up 11 catches for 93 yards and his first receiving touchdown, and 3 runs for 3 yards and 2 touchdowns.[2]

Professional career

He has taken 83 offensive snaps and 27 special teams snaps in his career.[4]
