Chattanooga’s high-effort DE with room to pop
Stinson is a 6-foot, 214-pound sophomore defensive end for Chattanooga in 2026, but the clean public stat sheet is still mostly empty after he redshirted and joined the program in August 2025[5][13]. His value profile is more about upside than production: local Chattanooga talent, a versatile background that included safety and wide receiver in high school, and strong academic habits (Dean’s List/A.D. Honor Roll) suggest a coachable, athletic developmental piece[5][11]. If you want a proven pass-rush finisher, he’s not there yet; if you want a young, energetic edge prospect to mold, he’s a live-wire project worth tracking[5][11].
