Palatine (Ill.) High On300 defensive lineman Jaylen Williams has flipped his commitment from Michigan to Wisconsin.

The four-star Williams becomes commit No. 24 for head coach Luke Fickell and his staff in the 2025 recruiting cycle.

Wisconsin hosted Williams over the weekend for the Oregon game.

“I always have a really good time when I go back to Madison,” Williams has said in the past. “They just know how to have a good time. The atmosphere is just amazing the whole ‘Jump Around’ stuff is hyped. What excites me the most is just the staff and coaches, they are some of the best people you’ll ever meet.”

The Badgers have On3’s No. 26 ranked recruiting class  prior to Williams joining the fold.

Willams becomes one of the jewels of the Wisconsin class alongside four-star linebacker Mason Posa, offensive linemen Hardy Watts and Logan Powell and edge rusher Nicolas Clayton.
