Five-star defensive end Jahkeem Stewart, ESPN's No. 1 overall prospect in the class of 2026, is no longer enrolled in New Orleans' St. Augustine High School, ESPN confirmed Friday afternoon, opening the door to a seismic in-season transfer and a potential reclassification into the 2025 class.

Stewart, the 6-foot-6, 275-pound high school junior, confirmed his departure from St. Augustine and told ESPN he plans to join a new program immediately, considering schools both in and out of Louisiana with hopes of enrolling as soon as Monday.
