PITTSBURGH -- A pair of four-star football recruits - one committed and one not - are visiting the Pitt Panthers this weekend. Jahesar Whittington, who committed to Pitt in April, and his teammate, Kenny Worsely - rated by Rivals as a four-star defensive back, were at Pitt's practice facility on Saturday.

Worsely and Whittington both attend Imhotep Charter High School in Philadelphia and have visited Pitt unofficially once before in April.

Worsely is the No. 8 player in Pennsylvania, according to 247Sports and holds offers from Georgia, Florida, Michigan, Michigan State, Oregon, Penn State, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wisconsin, in addition to Pitt and 11 other schools.

Whittington is the only player from the 2024 class that's given a verbal to the Panthers.
