The Aggies have added to their transfer portal haul with the verbal pledge of former Florida defensive back Jaydon Hill.

There was a thought that the Huntsville, Alabama, native was going to head back home to play for Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide, but he chose a future in College Station instead.

Hill becomes Mike Elko's 13th commitment via the portal.

As a Gator, Hill saw action in 43 games, including 25 starts. He recorded 88 total tackles, five of which were tackles-for-loss, while also logging another 2.5 sacks. He has also hauled in a pair of interceptions, had 18 pass deflections and recovered two fumbles. Hill was a part of Florida's 2019 signing class but had to miss nearly a season-and-a-half due to injury in the middle of his time in Gainesville.

He joins Trey Jones, De’Rickey Wright, Will Lee, Marcus Ratcliffe and Donovan Saunders as incoming portal players in the defensive backfield for the Aggies.
