Jaylen Brian Pickle (b. July 4, 1999) is a promising young three-tech defensive tackle prospect from Cimarron High School who plans on majoring in business administration and was the first commitment in the Wildcats’ Class of 2018.
He selected K-State over offers from South Dakota, Southern Illinois, UCF and Western Illinois, as well as strong regional interest from Iowa, Kansas and Oklahoma State.
A four-year letter-winner for the Bluejays, including the final year under head coach Greg Koenig, Pickle was regarded as the third-best prospect in the state of Kansas and the 44th-best defensive tackle in the nation for the Class of 2018 by Rivals.
