Montrell Chapman brings proven JUCO production and downhill linebacker traits to Mississippi State
Chapman’s appeal is his proven production at Mississippi Gulf Coast CC, where he posted 100 tackles, 8.0 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and two interceptions over two seasons, including 74 tackles in 2024; at Mississippi State, his role has been limited so far, with just one tackle in 2025 and a redshirt year noted in the roster bio. His differentiators are size (6-3, 230), tackling power, pursuit, and a physical style reflected in EA’s strong hit-power and tackle grades, making him a fit for teams that want a tough, run-stopping linebacker with upside rather than an immediate stat-sheet star.[2][4][5]
