The Georgia Bulldogs have lost a commitment in the class of 2021. Four-star defensive end Elijah Jeudy has decided to decommit from the University of Georgia. Jeudy originally committed to UGA on his birthday.

He plays football for Northeast High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

He was joined D’Andre Swift and Mark Webb as the latest Georgia players from Philly. Jeudy chose UGA over Texas A&M, Tennessee, Oregon and LSU back in the spring. Those will be among the teams competing to land Jeudy now that he has made his decommitment.

Elijah Jeudy announced his decision to decommit from the University of Georgia via his Twitter account:

Jeudy did give fans a date to pay attention to in the future. He plans to announce his commitment on signing day. It sounds like Jeudy is still considering the Georgia Bulldogs and we will update fans whenever he decides to make his final commitment.

Georgia football lands 2021 4-star Elijah Jeudy

Georgia football picked up a commitment from 4-star 2021 DE Elijah Jeudy on Sunday.

Georgia’s 2021 recruiting class is starting to take shape, and it’s only a matter of time before the Dawgs are once again in the running for the top class in the nation.

On Sunday, Georgia picked up a commitment from four-star class of 2021 weak-side defensive end Elijah Jeudy, who announced his commitment to UGA via Instagram Live.

Jeudy, who is celebrating a birthday today, plays football for Northeast High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

At 6-foot-3 and 246 pounds, the edge rusher ranks as the nation’s No. 167 overall prospect and No. 12 weak-side defensive end.

Jeudy also put Texas A&M, Tennessee, Oregon and LSU in his top five. But in the end, it was the Dawgs who came out on top.

“Georgia, it feels like home down there. They show a lot of love to their family and to me,” Jeudy said during an interview with Rivals last week.

247Sports has compared Jeudy to Dallas Cowboys star DeMarcus Lawrence.

Flexibility to dip shoulder and explode around edge. Uses hands well to keep offensive lineman off. Can re-direct down line of scrimmage. Excellent body control. Strong with gap integrity.
