Alabama added a talented in-state punter as a preferred walk-on to its class of 2016.

Preston Knight committed to walking on the Alabama football team, Prattville head coach Chad Anderson confirmed to AL.com. Knight visited Alabama last week and committed after a successful visit. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound Prattville punter is the second special teams player to announce his commitment to Alabama in the last week, joining Ole Miss transfer kicker Andy Pappanastos.

Knight will join rising junior JK Scott and rising sophomore Brannon Satterfield as Alabama's punters on the roster. Scott, a scholarship punter, averaged 44.2 yards per punt and pinned 25 punts inside the opponent's 20-yard line last season.

Knight had a 40 yards per punt average and a long punt of 60 yards last season in his first year punting for Prattville, according to stats on oneononekickingcamps.com. He had 10 punts inside the opponent's 20-yard line.
