Class of 2026 offensive line prospect decommits from Alabama football

Zykie Helton, a class of 2026 interior offensive lineman, has decommitted from Alabama football, per On3.

Helton’s decommitment comes a month after he spoke highly of new Alabama football coach Kalen DeBoer to BamaOnLine

“In my mind, I was like, ‘Let’s work,’” Helton told BOL. “I feel like he’s the next to do it. I know he lost the national championship, but I feel like he can go to Bama and do some special things.”

The 6-foot-3, 320-pound lineman from Carrollton High in Carrollton, Georgia, committed to Alabama in July 2023. He holds 11 offers, including those from Auburn, Georgia and Texas A&M. He is not yet ranked per 247Sports Composite. He was the lone commitment in Alabama’s 2026 class thus far.
