Ky Tayo is a sturdy, disruptive interior piece for Chattanooga
In the 2026 season, Chattanooga DT Ky Tayo has already logged 1 solo tackle and 1 sack, and his value goes beyond the box score: at 6-0, 284, he’s a fifth-year transfer who brings mature leverage, rotational toughness, and veteran edge to the Mocs’ defensive front. He joined Chattanooga in the summer of 2023 after Georgia Southern, where he was a high-impact high school defender and a scout-team grinder early in college; the fit makes sense for a team wanting experience, effort, and inside power over flash.
