The 6-foot, 180-pound Townsend is rated as the state of Alabama’s No. 9 overall prospect for 2017. He also reported early offers from Auburn and Kentucky.
Alabama now has five commits for 2017, including Cedar Grove offensive lineman Netori Johnson. Alabama also has 19 commits for this year’s recruiting class.
