The Utes received a commitment on Sunday afternoon from Devin Lloyd, a three-star athlete out of Otay Ranch High in Chula Vista, Calif.

At 6-foot-4 and 210, Lloyd has the potential to be a receiver or a defensive back for the Utes next fall.

Lloyd is graded as Scout's No. 14 athlete in California, andhttp://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/devin-lloyd/crjO-izUEeS00gAmVebEWg/default.htm";> he played both ways for Otay Ranch. He's credited with 29 catches for 493 yards and six touchdowns as a senior, but was also a major player on defense with 52 tackles and eight interceptions. The Mustangs were 4-8 last year.

Scout listed competing offers from most of the Mountain West, including Boise State and Utah State, for Lloyd. He made his official visit last weekend. http://www.hudl.com/video/3/4377420/57cb4f5811fa80208cb2f95d";>You can view his Hudl highlights here.

Despite several attempts this week, Lloyd could not be reached by the Tribune.

While Lloyd's commitment adds size and ball skills to Utah's 2017 class, the Utes are still looking to build up their numbers after the defection of tight end Ben Moos,https://twitter.com/bbmoose61/status/822919233151434752";> who decommitted over the weekend. With 12 commitments with only a week until Signing Day, Utahhttp://247sports.com/Season/2017-Football/CompositeTeamRankings?Conference=Pac-12";> has fewer recruits currently in the class than all but Cal and Stanford.
