After welcoming in a dozen early enrollees in January, the rest of Alabama’s 2022 class arrived on campus over the weekend. The Crimson Tide is joined by 11 freshmen summer arrivals as well as junior college transfer Miles Kitselman, who committed to Alabama earlier this month.
BamaCentral will break down the arrivals one by one. Next up is a player that met a position of need for the Crimson Tide, tight end Danny Lewis Jr.
Lewis was the last high school signee to join Alabama’s 2022 recruiting class when he committed and signed on National Signing Day back in early February. Alabama head coach Nick Saban said he and his staff were looking for players that had strong senior seasons and may have developed later in the year. Lewis met that need, and Saban was able to hold off a late push from LSU to snag the Westgate High School product out of New Iberia, Louisiana.
During his senior season, Lewis had 46 catches for 912 yards and six touchdown and led his team to a state championship. At 6-4, 255 pounds, he already has the size required to play tight end in the SEC.
