2026 4-Star RB Jonaz Walton Names Commitment Date

Hailing From Central High School in Carrollton, Georgia, the 5-foot-9, 205 lb. back is a powerful runner with excellent contact balance. He is ranked by 247Sports' composite ranking as the No. 10 player in the nation at his position and the No. 18 overall prospect in the state.

In three season of varsity football for the Central Lions, Walton has over 4,700 rushing yards and 56 touchdowns. Not to mention, he is also a very skilled receiver out of the backfield and has almost 1,000 yards through the air with seven more touchdowns.

A multi-sport athlete, Walton also competes in track and field and possesses a 10.63 second personal best in the 100 meter dash. For reference, Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who many consider to be the NFL's fastest player, ran the event in 10.19 seconds in 2024.

As of now, the Tide does not hold any running back commitments in the 2026 class, so adding a player like Walton would address a major gap. He is set to make an official visit to Tuscaloosa on May 30th which will be his second time in town as he was in attendance for the Tide's home game against Georgia in 2024.
