Majay Thompson is down to four schools.

Thompson is a 2027 wide receiver out of Crest High School in Shelby, North Carolina. Alabama football is in the process of wrapping up another group of official visits and the explosive wide receiver is a part of this group. The wideout is now considering Alabama, Florida State, Georgia and Wake Forest. All signs point to a commitment announcement coming soon.

The Crimson Tide made Thompson a priority before getting him on campus over the weekend for an official visit.

At 6-foot and 186 pounds, Thompson reports the ability to run a 4.4 forty, and his speed is evident in some of his top plays from the 2025 football season. He flashes the ability to take the top off of defense by getting behind the secondary, along with his ability to turn a short pass into a big gain. The new Alabama targets sees his route-running, strong hands, ability to create separation, blocking, speed, and body control as strengths.

Thompson finished his junior season with 53 receptions and 865 receiving yards. He compiled 1,115 all-purpose yards and 14 total touchdowns.
