Four-star edge rusher Chase Linton commits to Georgia

.

The Georgia Bulldogs are the new home for four-star edge rusher Chase Linton, who is a member of the class of 2025.

The talented edge rusher picked the Bulldogs over Florida State, Georgia Tech, LSU and Rutgers. During his commitment, Linton put on a Georgia Tech shirt and hat, but said it felt too tight and then committed to UGA.

Linton is listed at 6-foot-4, 215 pounds, and plays high school football at North Atlanta High in Atlanta, Georgia. He is the fourth-ranked edge rusher nationally and the No. 7 ranked player in Georgia, per 247Sports. Linton is the No. 45 recruit in the country, so he is not far from being ranked as a five-star recruit.

The Bulldogs offered Linton on July 28 and were favored to land a commitment from the four-star pass rusher since his decommitment from Rutgers in August.

Head coach Kirby Smart and UGA currently hold the nation’s top ranked recruiting class. Georgia has 26 commitments in the class of 2025 recruiting cycle. The Bulldogs are now ahead the Ohio State Buckeyes and Alabama Crimson Tide.

Georgia is making a run for the No. 1 recruiting class!
