  Former Auburn wide receiver J.J. Evans, a four-star prospect coming out of high school, has transferred to North Alabama. Evans spent two-plus seasons at Auburn after signing with the Tigers as part of their 2020 recruiting class, which was ranked seventh in the nation, but he left the program one week into the 2022 season and opted to enter the transfer portal. North Alabama announced the addition of Evans on Friday afternoon.

In signing Evans, UNA adds a former blue chip recruit to the Lions' offense as they head into the first year under head coach Brent Dearmon, who was previously on staff at Auburn as an analyst during the 2013-14 seasons. The 6-foot-2, 224-pound Evans was a four-star recruiting coming out of Montevallo, where he was rated as the No. 169 overall player in the country, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. - Birmingham News
