The Texas Longhorns have made a strategic move in bolstering their defensive lineup with the commitment of 2025 three-star recruit Caleb Chester from Fort Bend Marshall High School. Chester, known for his long, athletic frame, is poised to make a significant impact in the Longhorns’ secondary. His exceptional ball skills and status as a true cover corner distinguish him as a player with the potential to shut down opposing receivers and disrupt passing games.
In addition to his coverage abilities, Chester is also recognized for his prowess as an open field tackler, demonstrating a physicality and technique that make him a versatile asset on the field. His commitment comes on the heels of an official visit to the Texas campus on June 7th, where he likely connected with the coaching staff and witnessed the program’s vision for the future.
Chester’s decision to join the Longhorns is part of a broader trend for the program, as they continue to assemble a strong 2025 recruiting class. With Chester in the fold, the Longhorns are building a solid foundation of talented players who have the potential to elevate the team’s performance and contribute to its long-term success. Chester chose the Longhorns over LSU, Arkansas, Texas A&M and TCU. Chester is ranked as the No. 784 overall prospect in the 2025 class, the No. 71 cornerback in the nation, and the No. 131 overall prospect in the state of Texas according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.
