Chauncey Chidi brings size, production, and upside off Sam Houston’s edge
Chidi is a 6-foot-3, 250-pound junior edge defender at Sam Houston who already showed real disruption in 2025 with 20 solo tackles and 2.5 sacks, and he added 4.5 tackles for loss and a forced fumble in the Bearkats’ roster notes. His background suggests a high motor and steady production, with earlier high school and college stops showing tackling volume and backfield impact rather than just flash plays. The fit is appealing for teams wanting a physical, assignment-sound DE who can set the edge and still create pressure; his current EA College Football 26 rating is 66, which points to a solid developmental prospect rather than a finished product.[2][4][6]
