UCLA signs ex-UNLV RB commit Jayden Fox
UCLA announced a second signing Friday to its 2026 recruiting class, adding running back Jayden Fox.
The Englewood (Colo.) Cherry Creek three-star recruit was named the state’s Gatorade player of the year earlier in the day. Fox was previously committed to Connecticut before flipping to UNLV last month.
The Bruins, who also signed interior offensive lineman Michael Price on Friday, are up to 15 signings. Fox is the first running back in UCLA’s class.
Fox is UCLA’s third signing out of Colorado, and the second in as many days after Parker (Colo.) Legend quarterback DJ Bordeaux joined the class Thursday. The Bruins also inked Littleton (Colo.) Heritage tight end Camden Jensen when the first 12 signings were announced at the start of the early period Wednesday.
During his senior season, Fox ran for 1,517 yards and 22 touchdowns on 106 carries. He also caught 17 passes for 218 yards and three scores.
Fox is ranked 14th in the state and 61st nationally among all running backs in the respective Rivals Industry rankings.
