Quarterback Jalen Kitna committed to the University of Florida on Tuesday, becoming the 17th member of the Gators' 2021 class, which 247Sports ranks sixth-best in the country.
The son of former NFL quarterback Jon Kitna, Jalen chose UF over offers from Tennessee, Georgia Tech, Arizona, Colorado and Boston College.
The 6'4", 200-pound pro-style signal-caller passed for 1,554 yards and seven touchdowns with seven interceptions during his junior year with Frisco Reedy. 247Sports named Kitna a 3-star prospect and the 27th-best pro-style quarterback in the country.
In committing to Florida, Kitna joined a recruiting class that was already expected to provide competition at quarterback.
