The Alabama Crimson Tide continue their recruiting dominance with the latest addition of 2026 athlete Tyler Morgan, a dynamic and versatile prospect who announced his commitment on Wednesday. Hailing from Gadsden, Alabama, Morgan’s pledge marks another in-state win for Nick Saban’s powerhouse program, reinforcing their stronghold on top local talent.
Morgan, a 6-foot-1, 190-pound two-way standout, has turned heads across the Southeast with his explosive playmaking ability on both sides of the ball. While he’s made plays at wide receiver and safety throughout his high school career, Alabama is expected to utilize him primarily on the defensive side, where his instincts, speed, and physicality shine brightest.
Rated as a high three-star with potential to rise, Morgan held offers from several SEC programs including Auburn, Ole Miss, and Tennessee. However, the chance to represent his home-state school was too meaningful to pass up.
“It’s always been a dream of mine to play for Alabama,” Morgan said
