Stanford significantly enhanced its versatility Monday after securing a commitment from highly regarded athlete Paulson Adebo.

Steve Wiltfong of 247Sports noted Adebo confirmed the commitment in his Twitter profile.

According to Scout, Adebo is a 4-star prospect who rates as the No. 213 overall recruit, No. 16 player at his position and No. 4 athlete from the state of Texas.

After initially committing to Notre Dame, Adebo withdrew on Jan. 9 and reopened the recruiting process, per Tom Loy of 247Sports.

Adebo is a unique player in that he excelled at both cornerback and wide receiver at Mansfield High School (Texas), which has created some questions as to whether he will be a defensive or offensive player at the collegiate level.
