Jaleel Skinner announced his commitment to Alabama football Friday.
Skinner is rated as a four-star tight end and is the Crimson Tide’s 16th verbal commit in the 2022 recruiting class. He is the third 2022 tight-end prospect to chose Alabama, joining Elijah Brown and Amari Niblack.
The four-star recruit chose Alabama over Texas, Florida State, Miami and Clemson, who were all listed in Skinner’s top five. Clemson was the only program listed among Skinner’s finalist who did not host him for an official visit. Alabama got Skinner on campus for an official visit in June.
The South Carolina native is playing his senior season at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida.
