On Tuesday, Washington received a commitment from three-star Moorhead (Minn.) High defensive lineman Elinneus Davis, who would become the program’s first player from Minnesota since 1998 and would be only its fifth letterman ever from the state. Reed’s commitment also gives the Huskies another prospect outside their traditional recruiting footprint. Washington could bolster its DB class further by adding Jordan Sanford, a four-star safety from Arlington (Texas) Mansfield Timberview who also visited during the big June weekend and for whom the Huskies are considered strong contenders. He made 39 tackles with two tackles for loss, an interception and three passes defended as a sophomore in 2020 for a team that advanced to the 3A state semifinals.Īlong with Holmes and now Reed, the Huskies also have commitments from two other defensive backs - three-star Diesel Gordon, a likely safety from Arlington (Texas) Seguin, and three-star Leroy Bryant, a cornerback from Fairfield (Calif.) Angelo Rodriguez. Reed, listed at 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds, missed his junior season due to a torn ACL.

He is the fourth four-star to commit to Washington in 2023, joining defensive lineman Anthony James II from Wylie (Texas) East receiver Rashid Williams from Pittsburg (Calif.) High and safety Vincent Holmes from San Jacinto (Calif.) High.

Reed was part of Washington’s big official visit week in June and is the 12th prospect to commit to the Huskies either during or since that week began. 20 cornerback in the 2023 class, chose Washington over 25 other reported offers, including LSU, Miami, Oregon and USC, though he took his only other official visit to TCU. Curley Reed, a four-star cornerback prospect from Lake Charles (La.) College Prep, announced a commitment to Washington on Thursday, becoming the 18th member of the Huskies’ 2023 class - and the highest-rated prospect in the group, per the 247Sports Composite.
