Iowa State picked up its 10th football commit for the class of 2018 over the weekend.
Jaeveyon Morton, a defensive back from Detroit, Michigan, announced his commitment to Iowa State Saturday.
Morton, who is listed at 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds, does not have the size of recent Iowa State defensive back commits — such as 6-foot-1 cornerback Anthony Johnson Jr.
His lack of size didn’t seem to scare teams away. The three-star cornerback held offers from schools such as Cincinnati, Iowa, Pittsburgh and Indiana.
With Morton’s commitment, Iowa State now has two defensive backs — Morton and Johnson Jr. — in the 2018 class. Iowa State’s 2018 class is currently ranked No. 34 by 247Sports.
