Alabama offers 5-star Houston QB commit Keisean Henderson

One of the rising stars of the 2026 recruiting class has added another offer from an elite program to his collection.

Houston (Texas) Legacy SSS five-star quarterback Keisean Henderson has received a scholarship offer from Alabama, according to a post from his X account. Other offers include Georgia, Auburn, LSU, Michigan, Oregon, Texas A&M and more.

Henderson has been committed to the hometown Houston Cougars since May 27, 2024. Earlier this month at Nike’s Next Ones event in New Orleans, Henderson had high praise for Willie Fritz and the Cougars’ coaching staff.

“The way (Fritz) moves, the way he’s able to pick up stuff, be a leader. Everywhere he went he’s always turned the program around. Just watching that from the past couple of years when he was at Tulane, he flipped that program,” Henderson said.

“I’ve known coach Nagle since he was at Tulane, between coach (Shawn) Bell and coach Nagle, those were the first two that pulled the trigger on me at quarterback my sophomore year.”

Henderson added that NIL is not playing a part in his decision, and he plans to still visit other schools to continue to build relationships throughout the sport’s landscape.

“Just listening to what they’ve got to say, more so for relationships, you never know where people are going to end up at. I approach it like that every time they talk to me,” Henderson said.

“Not taking the visits to flip or anything like that, because I love Houston with all my heart,” he added. “Just hearing people out, cause you never know, it’s a changing game.”

The 6-foot-3, 170-pound Henderson is the nation’s No. 14 overall prospect in the 2026 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is the No. 5 QB in the class and the top-ranked player from the state of Texas.
