Jabari Watkins, a four-star Class of 2027 wide receiver from Thomas County (Georgia) High School, committed to Nebraska over Florida State and Illinois on Friday.

Watkins is 6-foot-2, 185 pounds, and had 20 catches for 280 yards and seven touchdowns entering his game Friday against Lee County. Last year as a sophomore, he made 39 catches for 692 yards and five touchdowns.

Watkins becomes the fourth commit for 2027, joining quarterback Trae Taylor, offensive lineman Matt Erickson and five-star defensive back Tory Pittman.
