Big-bodied, reliable interior defender with a growing role at UConn
Choute is a 6-foot-4, 295-pound defensive lineman whose value comes from size, strength, and steady availability rather than flashy sack totals; in 2025 at UConn, he played in 12 of 13 games, made two starts, and finished with 12 tackles and a half tackle for loss, building on a 2024 season that included a fumble recovery and pass breakup. His profile suggests a sturdy, assignment-sound interior piece who can help against the run and bring physical maturity to a rotation, making him a fit for teams that want dependable trench play over high-variance pass-rush production.
