The 6-4, 304-pound junior had played sparingly this season after recording 12 total tackles for the Tigers the last 2 seasons.
Walker had been a highly regarded prospect in the 2020 recruiting class.
He was rated by the 247Sports composite as a 4-star prospect and the No. 79 overall player in the nation.
Auburn head coach Bryan Harsin also confirmed Walker’s departure during his Monday press conference.
