Kalen DeBoer and Alabama found one more addition to their 2026 class, landing Glassboro (N.J.) three-star athlete Amari Sabb<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The younger brother of current Crimson Tide defensive back Keon Sabb<\/a>, he chose \u2018Bama over offers from Rutgers, Penn State, and a host of others. Amari and his older brother Xavier Sabb<\/a>, an elite wide receiver in the 2027 cycle, visited Tuscaloosa last fall and came away impressed by the atmosphere and the coaching staff. <\/p>\n

\u201cI always love the energy at \u2018Bama,\u201d Amari told BamaOnLine<\/a>. \u201cWhen you got the games, the atmosphere, it\u2019s just so surreal, you know? They played great, they bounced back from the first week, and I think they\u2019re real contenders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amari is being recruited by the Tide as a wide receiver, as is his younger brother.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just so much talent,\u201d Amari added. \u201cI like how they rotated a lot of receivers last game. There\u2019s just so much talent on the field at once from that position.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 5-foot-8, 160-pounder starred all over the field for Glassboro as a senior, hauling in 53 receptions for 916 yards and 12 touchdowns. As a rusher, he totaled 823 yards and 14 more scores on just 65 carries while averaging 12.7 yards per carry. <\/p>\n

On defense, he tallied 28 tackles, six interceptions and six pass breakups. <\/p>\n

Across four years at the varsity level, he was one of the Garden State\u2019s most dominant players, finishing with more than 5,000 all-purpose yards and 61 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
