CINCINNATI — Cincinnati added another 2024 commitment on Friday in three-star St. Joseph's Prep wide receiver Elijah Jones.

According to On3, Jones is the 203rd-ranked wide receiver nationally and the 48th-ranked player in Pennsylvania. Cincinnati offered Jones in March.

The 5-foot-11, 185-pound wide receiver held offers from schools like Kent State and Temple. Jones is the fourth receiver to commit in this class, the most of any position thus far.

The long-striding playmaker can take intermediate and short routes to painful spots for a defense. He doesn't have elite speed but plays with heady awareness, great angles, and hands.

Jones can turn a bubble screen into a big play and is a nasty outside run blocker during different points of his highlight reel.

His quarterback, Samaj, is one of UC's top passing targets in the 2024 class and this could be a way to sweeten the recruiting process. The program is now up to 14 commits during this cycle.
