Five-star/four-star EDGE rusher Jordan Ross announced his commitment to Tennessee giving the Vols their highest-ranked overall recruit in the class according to 247’s rankings. Ross chose Tennessee over Florida, Texas, and Alabama.

Ross, a 6-foot-4, 230-pound EDGE rusher from Birmingham, AL, is an impressive athlete with his combination of speed, length, quickness, and athleticism at the position. Ross is also a dual-sport athlete and can translate movements from the hardwood onto the gridiron.
Ross ranks as the Vols’ high-rated defensive and overall commit in the class and as Tennessee’s lone EDGE rusher so far.
