Jayden Bonsu, a Class of 2023 four-star safety out of Hillside, New Jersey, announced Friday that heโll be pushing his commitment date up to July 20.

Bonsu was scheduled to make his commitment ย Aug. 20.
But his recruitment is going along faster and more intense after visits to Miami, Michigan State and Ohio State in June. Bonsu is the number three recruit in New Jersey, the No. 36 safety in the country and the No. 272 overall recruit in the Class of 2023.
Bonsu is a 6-foot-2, 205-pound safety who started his career at Hillside High School but transferred to St. Peterโs Prep for his junior season. In 2021, he recorded 62 tackles (7.5 for loss), 2.5 sacks, and two interceptions.
Scouts are impressed with Bonsuโs versatility. He can play deep safety, play in the box to support in run defense and can cover receivers and tight ends. Heโs also a good open-field tackler that wraps up ball carriers that gets them down almost every time.
Bonsu has made two unofficial visits to Penn State thus far.
If Bonsu commits, heโd join wide receiver Ejani Shakir as New Jersey commits in the Class of 2023.
