JUST IN: Recruiting expert predicts Alabama football to land game-changing 5-star prospect.
​Alabama football’s recruiting momentum continues to surge as experts predict the Crimson Tide are on the verge of securing a commitment from Jorden Edmonds, a five-star cornerback in the 2026 class. Steve Wiltfong of On3 has logged a prediction favoring Alabama to land Edmonds, highlighting the program’s strong position in his recruitment. ​
Edmonds, standing at 6-foot-2 and weighing 175 pounds, has garnered an impressive 43 scholarship offers. His list of suitors includes powerhouse programs such as Georgia, LSU, and Michigan, underscoring his status as one of the nation’s elite defensive backs.
Alabama’s track record of developing NFL-caliber defensive backs and its consistent presence in the College Football Playoff are significant factors that appeal to top recruits like Edmonds. Should he commit, Edmonds would join a lineage of standout cornerbacks who have flourished under Alabama’s coaching staff.​
The potential addition of Edmonds would bolster Alabama’s already impressive 2026 recruiting class, further solidifying the program’s future defensive prowess. As the recruiting process unfolds, all eyes will be on Edmonds’ decision, which could have a lasting impact on the Crimson Tide’s secondary in the years to come.
