Jalen Wells, TE

South Alabama has received their 14th commitment for the 2013.

Jalen Wells, a 6’4″ 230-pound student-athlete from Dublin, GA is listed as a Tight End via 247Sports and an outside linebacker by Scout.com. He is being recruited as a defensive end by the Jaguars.

He was in Mobile for the South Alabama 7-on-7 tournament and impressed the Jaguar coaching staff.

He is already rated the 80th best tight end in the country and as a three-star athlete by 247sports. Scout.com rates him 123rd among outside linebackers and as a two-star athlete. Wells caught 29 passes for 600 yards and eight touchdowns last season.

Wells has received interest from Florida, Georgia, NC State, Mississippi State and Georgia Tech but had not received an offer from them.

Jalen Wells joins 13 other recruits that have verbally committed to the Jaguars.
