RECRUITING SPOTLIGHT: 2024 WR, Alabama commit Amari Jefferson

This week, the Recruiting Spotlight is put on highlight 2024 wide receiver and Alabama commit Amari Jefferson.

When you think of a versatile athlete, what comes to mind? Well, a specific player that comes to my mind is 2024 wide receiver and Alabama commit Amari Jefferson.

The native of Chattanooga, Tennessee is a dual-sport athlete at The Baylor School. There, he plays both baseball and football. Jefferson not only plays both but is extremely good at both. In August, Jefferson committed to Alabama to play both sports at the college level.

With that being the case, he will likely enroll at Alabama following the conclusion of his senior year. For now, he is focusing on football and has been tearing it up on the gridiron to begin his senior season.

Jefferson has been an integral part of the Red Raiders offense this season. He has helped lead them to a 3-1 start to the season.

During his junior season, the same could be said. Jefferson hauled in 72 receptions for 1,370 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns.

Jefferson could be called on to play multiple positions upon arriving in Tuscaloosa. He has the capability on special teams as well as at both wide receiver and running back. Regardless of where he plays, he is sure to make a quick impact on Alabama’s offense.

Roll Tide Wire will continue to follow Alabama commits during the 2023 season.

RECRUITING SPOTLIGHT: 2024 LB, Alabama commit Cayden Jones

This week, the Recruiting Spotlight is put on highlight 2024 linebacker and Alabama commit Cayden Jones.

An Alabama commit that does not receive enough recognition is 2024 four-star linebacker Cayden Jones. The North Carolina native committed to Alabama in April and has been locked in with the Crimson Tide ever since.

Jones plays linebacker for The Christ School in Arden, North Carolina. It has not been the ideal start for the Greenies in 2023. The team is off to an 0-3 start to the season. However, Jones has performed well to begin his senior season.

Jones has recorded 30 tackles and four tackles for loss in three games this season. Meaning he averages 10 tackles per game. An interesting thing to note is that Jones’ team has played three out-of-state teams to kick off the season. Their opponents thus far have been: Lowndes High School (GA), St. Joseph Regional High School (NJ), and Carrollwood Day High School (FL). The level of competition is likely stronger than it will be for the rest of the season.

Therefore, Jones will continue to impress from a statistical standpoint as well as from his performance on the Greenies defense.

Jones is one of three linebackers committed to the Crimson Tide as a part of the 2024 recruiting class. He is joined by four-star Sterling Dixon and three-star Justin Okoronkwo.

Roll Tide Wire will continue to follow Jones’ senior season as well as other Alabama football recruiting news.
