Xavier Griffin, a top-30 recruit in ESPN's 300, committed to Alabama on Sunday.
Listed as the third-highest-rated linebacker and the third-best recruit in the state of Georgia, Griffin chose the Crimson Tide over Ohio State, Texas, and Florida State.
The four-star prospect stands at 6-foot-4 and weighs 205 pounds. In eight games as a junior at Gainesville High School, Griffin racked up 43 tackles and six sacks, according to 247 Sports.
Griffin becomes Alabama's highest-ranked commitment in the 2026 class, which also includes ESPN 300 recruits Ezavier Crowell (running back) and Jorden Edmonds (cornerback).
