Cooper Austin is a rising, sturdy Yale interior force
In the 2025 season, Yale DL Cooper Austin appeared in all 12 games, posted 10 total tackles, and logged his first career sack against Princeton, showing he can be a dependable rotational piece who finishes when the moment finds him. At 6-foot-2 and about 290 pounds on Yale’s 2026 roster, he brings classic interior-line size, durability, and a physical profile that suggests he can eat blocks and hold the point of attack. The appeal: steady, low-drama, trench-worker energy—good fit if you want toughness, depth, and a player who keeps climbing.
