Selma 3-Star WR commits to Auburn over Alabama

Cedrick Simmons announced a commitment to Auburn over Alabama on Tuesday.

Simmons attends Selma High School in Selma, Alabama, and he is a member of the 2027 recruiting class. He is one of the most underrated players in the country as a three-star recruit.

The Selma product led the state in receiving yards last season.

“I love the coaches over there,” Simmons said while discussing his thoughts on Auburn. “They want the best for everybody over there. They are great at making their players the best they can be. I got two teammates up at Auburn right now, so they actually put me on with the wide receiver coach. At the time, it was Coach Davis, and he liked my playing style, and he offered me at a young age, and he believed in me early at a young age in the 10th grade.”

Both schools hosted Simmons for an official visit this month. The Crimson Tide did so two weeks ago. Auburn hosted him over the weekend and was able to grab momentum for the talented wideout.

Simmons’ commitment gives 23 2027 verbal commits.

Alabama remains without a wide receiver pledge, but this could change soon. The Tide is still actively recruiting Monshun Sales, Osani Gayles and Kyren Caldwell.
