WATCH: Auburn QB signee Joey Gatewood runs over defender a la Cam Newton in UA All-American Game

Auburn quarterback signee Joey Gatewood looks a bit more like a fullback.

Gatewood, who is an obvious dual-threat QB, is a powerful runner — so much so that he might remind Tigers fans of a certain former quarterback who could barrel through defenders when he needed to.

Not to make an unfair comparison in literal terms, but that guy played around 2010 and won a Heisman Trophy.

Gatewood is a 6-foot-4 232-pound stud in the class of 2018. He’s a 4-star prospect, according to the 247Sports Composite, and is rated as the nation’s No. 3 athlete and the No. 108 player overall.

It appears the Tigers are getting a good one out of Jacksonville, Fla.

Check out this ridiculous hit Gatewood laid on a defender in the Under Armour All-American Game on Thursday night, courtesy of a video posted to Twitter by SB Nation Recruiting:
