Auburn wide receiver Anthony Schwartz underwent surgery Monday to repair a broken bone in his hand, according to multiple reports.

The speedy Schwartz, who reportedly injured the hand during Sunday's practice, is projected to be a key contributor this year for the Auburn offense.

Schwartz tweeted his thanks to those who wished him well.

Thank you for all y'all thoughts and prayers, it was a success today, can't wait to get back on that field with my brothersud83dude4fud83cudffdud83dude4fud83cudffdud83dude4fud83cudffd
