Five-star defensive end recruit Elijah Griffin has committed to the Georgia Bulldogs. Griffin’s commitment is a massive addition for Georgia football head coach Kirby Smart.

The 6-foot-5, 285-pound defensive lineman has immense potential and is ready to wreck games at the college level. Griffin committed to Georgia over the USC Trojans and Miami Hurricanes.

The five-star defender is Georgia’s No. 23 commitment in the class of 2025. Griffin’s commitment raises Georgia to the third-best recruiting class in the country. The Dawgs previously had the nation’s No. 5 recruiting class.

Griffin plays high school football for Savannah Christian Prep in Savannah, Georgia. Griffin has elite high school production with 35.5 career sacks. The disruptive pass rusher is Georgia’s top ranked commitment in the 2025 recruiting cycle, per 247Sports. Griffin was also nation’s the top remaining uncommitted recruit.

Griffin’s commitment to Georgia comes shortly after the Bulldogs lost a commitment from five-star quarterback Jared Curtis.
