Zion Grady received a visit from members of the Alabama football coaching staff at Enterprise High School on Thursday.

Grady is a five-star edge, who was committed to Alabama before Nick Saban announced his retirement. He received a visit from Alabama staffer and former Tide players, Denzel Devall and Josh Chapman. 

The five-star said he would remain open to being recruited by Alabama after he backed off his pledge earlier this week. 

“I’m still open, but the communication has to be there,” Grady told Touchdown Alabama.
