Alabama reportedly among finalists for elite 2027 cornerback

Alabama football has reportedly been included in the finalists for elite 2027 cornerback Hayden Stepp, per Rivals’ Hayes Fawcett.

At 6-foot-3, 190 pounds, Stepp is an extremely athletic cornerback that would undoubtedly prove to be an excellent addition to Alabama’s class, should he commit to the Crimson Tide. The top recruit has Alabama, California, Georgia, and Oregon listed among his finalists, per Fawcett, as the Tide will look to land the highly-touted prospect.

Stepp also has an official visit locked in to each of his top four schools, per Fawcett, as the five-star recruit will be in Tuscaloosa to visit the Tide on May 29.

Stepp is ranked as the No. 5 cornerback and the No. 33 overall prospect from the class of 2027, per the 247Sports Composite rankings. He is ranked as the No. 1 overall player out of Nevada as well where he attends national power Bishop Gorman High School, as Stepp will more than likely continue to narrow down his options in the near future.

Alabama continues to target a plethora of elite talent from the 2027 recruiting cycle, as Stepp would be an excellent addition to the Tide’s class should he ultimately land in Tuscaloosa.
