LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Louisville has signed defensive tackle Dejmi Dumervil-Jean, the nephew of former Cardinals star and NFL player Elvis Dumervil, among 20 recruits announced on opening day of the early signing period.

The 6-foot-5, 357-pound Dumervil-Jean, from St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida, highlights 12 defensive recruits announced on Wednesday. Louisville also signed teammate Trenell Troutman, a 5-11, 190-pound safety.
