Crimson Tide WR Commit Flips to SEC Foe

He had been committed to the Crimson Tide since July of this year, but is now the Commodores' 17th signee of the class.

Hailing from Christ Presbyterian Academy (CPA), Cabell is a 6-foot-2, 201 lb. wideout with an impressive skill set. He is ranked as the No. 87 player at his position in the nation and the No. 20 player in the state of Tennessee, according to 247Sports' composite ranking.

In his senior season for CPA, Cabell hauled in 43 receptions for 686 yards and seven touchdowns as a receiver, but was also utilized as a return specialist, compiling nearly 500 yards and two more scores between his punt and kick returns.

With the loss of Cabell, Alabama is down to just two wide receiver commits in the 2026 class, one of which has already signed his letter of intent -- 5-Star Cederian Morgan. The other wideout commit, 3-Star Brian Williams, Jr., has been recently linked to Auburn by Rivals' Steve Wiltfong (payall content).
