Grayson Rams Kicker Jalen Anderson Commits to Navy
Grayson Rams kicker Jalen Anderson has committed to play for the United States Naval Academy, Navy announced Thursday. Anderson, a Class of 2025 standout, was a key contributor to the Rams' special teams unit last season. The 6-foot-1 kicker joins a Navy program that is known for its emphasis on discipline and teamwork, values that align with Anderson's own approach to the game. Anderson's commitment is a significant pickup for Navy, which is looking to bolster its kicking game. The Midshipmen's coaching staff was impressed with Anderson's leg strength and accuracy, and he is expected to compete for a starting role. Anderson's decision to commit to Navy comes after a thorough evaluation of several top programs. He had originally committed to Georgia Tech in 2023 but reopened his recruitment in February 2024.
