4-star CB Jontae Gilbert commits to in-state Georgia

Four-star defensive back Jontae Gilbert committed to play for the Georgia Bulldogs, he announced on social media Saturday.

The 6-foot-1, 185-pound cornerback won’t have far to travel to play for the Bulldogs after completing his upcoming senior season at Frederick Douglass High School in Atlanta.

Rated the nation’s No. 141 prospect overall and No. 17 cornerback by the 247Sports composite, Gilbert is an all-around athlete who has played cornerback, free safety, wide receiver and even punter for Douglass.

Gilbert had reportedly been considering Georgia Tech and North Carolina State. He originally committed to Ohio State after his freshman season before recently backing off that pledge and re-opening his recruiting.
