Overview:
Jalen Lee is a four-star recruit from Live Oak High School in Watson, La., and is the No. 37 defensive tackle (No. 364 overall) in the 2020 recruiting class.
Lee originally committed to in-state LSU last June two days after taking an official visit to Baton Rouge. He held his commitment to the Tigers for over five months before decommitting in November. He flipped to the Gators on Dec. 5 and signed during the early period, enrolling on campus in June.
At 6-foot-3-inches, 294 pounds, Lee has college-ready size and possesses great strength at the point of attack. He uses his physicality well to get through blockers and be a wrecking ball in the run game. He’s also a good athlete given his size and can pursue if need be. He needs to improve his variety of moves in the pass-rushing game, as he too often relies on brute force to take down the quarterback.
In a class loaded with defensive line talent, Lee could develop into a solid starting-level interior defensive lineman.
