On3 Consensus four-star wide receiver Armani Winfield (Lewisville, Texas) is staying home, once again.

The one-time Texas commitment committed and signed with the Baylor Bears over Texas on Signing day.

Armani Winfield, who is 6-foot-2 and 180-pounds, made official visits to Michigan State in June and Baylor last weekend. The Spartans and Bears appeared to be where the decision would come from Sunday. That was before Steve Sarkisian and staff spoke with the members of the circle of Winfield Monday morning. The decision then came down to Baylor or Texas.

The commitment of Armani Winfield is a key one for Bears in the 2022 cycle. The No. 224 ranked prospect in the On3 Consensus is the second wide receiver in the class.

Armani Winfield is one of the top ball tracking receivers in the class. He also possesses “ride out” speed after the catch. 

Armani Winfield posted a very productive senior season. He hauled in 66 passes for 1,006 yards and eight touchdowns, including five games of 100 receiving yards or more. He finished his high school career with 194 receptions for over 2,700 receiving yards. 

Winfield becomes Baylor’s 19th prospect in the 2022 class. The Bears currently have the No. 35 ranked class in the On3 Consensus Team Rankings.
