Arkansas loses 2026 tight end commitment

The Arkansas Razorbacks lost their third commitment this month from the 2026 class on Tuesday night.
Willis (Texas) three-star tight end Jaivion Martin, 6-foot-4, 250 pounds, joined offensive tackle Bryce Gilmore (who has since committed to Texas Tech) and quarterback Jayvon Gilmore in rescinding his commitment to the Hogs.
Per Rivals, he is “drawing interest from programs in and around the Lone Star State.” Texas Tech and Houston are two listed as programs that have picked up traction to land Martin.
Martin committed to Arkansas on May 2 over additional offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Cal, Duke, and Memphis among others.
He is rated as the 39th-best tight end nationally by Rivals and 89th overall prospect in Texas.
Arkansas’ 2026 recruiting class is now down to 24 following Martin’s decommitment.
