Kansas State Wildcats football has added Texas defensive lineman Jalen Price to their 2027 recruiting class.
The Wildcats landed their second defensive lineman of the day with Price's commitment on Wednesday, June 24.
Price, a three-star prospect, chose Kansas State over Oklahoma State, Baylor, Auburn, and Mississippi State.
He initially committed to Baylor but decommitted on May 23.
Price's commitment is a significant boost to the Wildcats' defensive line, which is a key area of focus for the team.
The 6-foot-3, 250-pound defensive lineman is ranked as the No. 126 defensive lineman and No. 1,054 overall prospect by 247Sports Composite.
The Wildcats' 2027 recruiting class is shaping up to be a strong one, with Price joining fellow commit Jeron Allen.
As of Wednesday morning, Kansas State was ranked with the No. 28 recruiting class in the country, according to the 247Sports Composite.
The team's next game is scheduled for September 5, 2026, against the Nicholls Colonels.
Price's high school teammate, Jeron Allen, is also a 2027 commit to the Wildcats.
The Wildcats' coaching staff, led by Wyatt D. Wheeler's coverage, will look to build on this momentum in the coming weeks.
The 247Sports Composite grades Price as a three-star prospect, a significant addition to the Wildcats' roster.
