Chavez Thompson is a tough, college-ready center in FSU’s pipeline
Chavez Thompson’s calling card is trench grit: the Florida State redshirt freshman from Cocoa, listed at 6-foot-1 and 318 pounds in 2026, came in as a three-star recruit who won a state title, piled up 33 pancake blocks in his senior year, and even brought wrestler-level leverage and balance to the line. In limited 2025 action, he reportedly flashed efficient pass protection and no pressures allowed, which is exactly the kind of low-drama, high-reliability profile teams love in an interior lineman.
