Expert Analysis
Tyler Graham | Prep Redzone Scout
Chase is a relentless edge with serious D1 upside. He’s in a great system where he will likely continue to develop and evolve into one of the best defenders in the state. Arnold was a great piece to a state championship winning defense, and watching his highlights will show you exactly why D1 schools have him on their board.
His first step is just different. Very clearly fires off faster than anyone else along the line. When he sizes up his competition, he is able to use a variety of moves to get by. When the ball carrier scurries to the opposite side of the field, Chase has the motor and effort to run them down. When he gets his hands on the carrier, they’re done. He is a sure tackler with great physicality. A great mix of strength, speed and aggression will make Chase a problem for years to come.

Chase is another defensive end who already has some impressive size for his age group. With a big performance at the recent AYF National All-Star game, Chase is beginning to gain some national recognition, along with the rest of the best in his class. At the defensive end, Chase is a tenacious ball player with a nasty edge. Chase is a natural edge-setter in the run game and is a sure tackler whenever the ball carrier is remotely close to him. Overall, Chase is a very bright future and is likely going to become one of the most sought-after defensive athletes in the class of 2027.

is another defensive lineman with some potential to know about. Coming out of the Great Lake State, Chase stands over 6 feet tall and is a big 195 pounds. Chase might be one of the twitchiest defensive linemen that I have seen out of this class. With his burst off the ball, Chase has no problem rushing the quarterback and racking up sacks. With Chase’s athleticism, he has no problem changing direction to make a play on the ball when he needs to. Another thing that impresses me about the Southfield Falcons 13U standout is that his vision into the backfield helps him adjust to what is going on so that he can get to the ball carrier as soon as possible. From everything that I have seen, Chase has proven to be a defensive end with some ability. If he continues to follow his trajectory, he could become a 2027 Michigan prospect a lot of people will want.
