Early National Signing Day: Area high school football players put pen to paper

PALM BEACH COUNTY – Signed, sealed, and delivered.

Many of our highly rated high school football players have decided to officially end their respective college recruiting processes today (Dec. 3).

In the early morning hours, they contacted their colleges of choice via fax and/or email to document and authenticate where their next destinations will be at. In other words, this is their way of putting pen to paper.

This happened before their respective Early National Signing Day ceremonies took place at their high schools.

With that said, we will take you on a special Early National Signing Day journey around Palm Beach County for the Class of 2026.
