Yes TLS secures and encrypts (normally). And TLS could even compress the 
data. But in most cases a TLS connection does not establish a compression.
There is also JEP-0138 to just compress data (which can be used together 
with TLS as well).

It should be enough to compress the data before it gets encrypted. With 
a good encryption algorithm, a compression layer will not reduce the 
size of the encrypted data.
