Missouri Tigers football earns class of 2026 commitment from 4-star wide receiver

Make that three commitments for Mizzou football’s 2026 recruiting class.

The Tigers landed a verbal commitment from Pompano Beach, Florida, wide receiver Jabari Brady on Saturday, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett and later confirmed by Brady on X.

A four-star prospect, according to the 247Sports Composite Ranking, Brady joins fellow four-stars — quarterback Gavin Sidwar and linebacker Keenan Harris — as part of MU’s incoming class of 2026.

The rising senior at Monarch High School chose the Tigers over a plethora of Power Four programs, such as Ohio State, Georgia, Michigan, Alabama, Miami and LSU.

Brady is the No. 45 wide receiver and No. 271 overall prospect in the country, according to the 247Sports Composite Ranking.

Brady is coming off a junior campaign in which he put up 485 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in seven games of action. His sophomore year was his most complete, as he caught 70 passes for 1,392 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Brady also played defensive back during his sophomore and junior seasons. He totaled 29 tackles and two interceptions in the former and 14 tackles and one pick in the latter.

The Tigers remain relatively behind their peers in 2026 recruiting but have a busy June ahead of them. A total of 10 players officially visited campus Friday, and 11 more visit June 20, according to Rivals. Brady made his visit to Columbia on May 30.

Two more class of 2026 receivers remain in Missouri’s sights: four-star Mason James and three-star Deyvon Hill-Lomax.

Adding either alongside Brady would help bolster a strong receiving corps for MU.
