4-star DB Jayden Lewis reopens recruitment

Four-star defensive back Jayden Lewis has reopened his recruitment.

Lewis, who is from Anniston, Ala., de-committed from Auburn on Tuesday, he told On3’s Chad Simmons. Lewis committed to the Tigers in February.

“I feel like I shut my recruiting process down too early,” he told Simmons. “A lot more schools are still trying to talk and keep in communication with me, so I just wanted to step back and get a feel for more schools and find the best opportunity.”

The On3 Industry Ranking has Lewis the No. 345 overall recruit in the country and No. 31 cornerback. He also ranks the No. 19 recruit in Alabama.

Lewis is the second defensive back to de-commit from the Tigers in the past week. Four-star Jalewis Solomon reopened his recruitment on Oct. 10 and subsequently committed to South Carolina.

Auburn now has 16 commitments in its 2024 recruiting class, a group currently ranked No. 15 in the country and No. 9 in the SEC.
