2024 NFL Draft: Chau Smith-Wade Draft Profile and Scouting Report
Chau Smith-Wade joined the Washington State Cougars as a member of the 2020 class. As a true freshman, he appeared in two games, which preserved his redshirt status. That season, which was shortened due to COVID, he finished with eight tackles and 1 pass breakup in games against Oregon and Oregon State. He saw an additional workload as a redshirt freshman the following season, playing in 11 games and tallying 17 total tackles, 1 interception, and 2 pass breakups. Smith-Wade was a full-time starter in 2022, ending the year with 43 total tackles, 2 interceptions, 8 passes defended, and 3 forced fumbles. His stats took a hit in 2023, but mostly due to an injury-plagued season.
