After defying the odds to earn a roster spot with the New England Patriots, Efton Chism<\/a>, one of Eastern\u2019s greatest wide receivers and most notable graduates, is poised to take his place on professional football\u2019s biggest stage.<\/p>\n

Chism will face all-time Eagle great Cooper Kupp<\/a> in Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. For Chism, suiting up in the NFL\u2019s premier event is the perfect end to a true gridiron Cinderella story \u2014 one that has made him a big fan favorite in New England.<\/p>\n

After his debut was delayed by a knee injury, Chism, an undrafted rookie receiver and kick returner, went on to play a key role in positioning the Patriots for their successful run to the AFC Championship. In a Dec. 28 victory over the New York Jets, he tallied 40 yards on two receptions. A week later snagged a 35-yard reception in a win against the Miami Dolphins. During the first round of the playoffs, Chism had a 20-yard catch in the Patriots’ big win over the Los Angeles Chargers.<\/p>\n","pull_quote":"","image":false,"caption":""},{"type":"image","text":"","pull_quote":"","image":{"ID":87719,"id":87719,"title":"Chism-III,-Efton","filename":"Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507.jpg","filesize":709221,"url":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/news\/efton-chism\/chism-iii-efton\/","alt":"Efton Chism posing center field on the EWU red turf.","author":"462","description":"","caption":"","name":"chism-iii-efton","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":87712,"date":"2026-01-29 21:17:59","modified":"2026-01-29 21:19:08","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1707,"height":2220,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-231x300.jpg","medium-width":231,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-768x999.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":999,"large":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-787x1024.jpg","large-width":787,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-1181x1536.jpg","1536x1536-width":1181,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-1575x2048.jpg","2048x2048-width":1575,"2048x2048-height":2048,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-300x300.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":300,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-400x400.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":400,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/Chism-III-Efton-scaled-e1769724563507-600x600.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":600}},"caption":"Efton Chism III \u201924, Health & Physical Education"}],"component_options_toggle":false,"component_options":{"disable_component":false,"nickname":"","identifier":"","navigable":false}},{"acf_fc_layout":"article-content","columns":[{"type":"pull_quote","text":"","pull_quote":"Hopefully people will remember me as one of the [Eagle] greats...","image":false,"caption":""}],"component_options_toggle":false,"component_options":{"disable_component":false,"nickname":"","identifier":"","navigable":false}},{"acf_fc_layout":"article-content","columns":[{"type":"text","text":"

Chism\u2019s move to Boston came on the heels of his remarkable 2024 senior season at Eastern, one that saw him surpass Kupp’s single-season reception record with 120 catches \u2014 a total that led both the Big Sky and the FCS. Chism also led the conference and was second in the nation, with 1,311 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

A combination of power and determination was a Chism trademark during each of his five years on the Eagles\u2019 roster. He\u2019s carried those qualities over to his professional career, where, when not churning out additional yards after catches, his tenacity as a run blocker has gained him the respect and admiration of Patriots\u2019 fans and teammates alike.<\/p>\n

Before his final season at EWU, Chism cited Kupp \u2014 who returned to his home state of Washington to join the Seattle Seahawks last spring \u2014 as both an inspiration and a benchmark for success.<\/p>\n

\u201cHopefully people will remember me as one of the [Eagle] greats, and I’ve been chasing that since I got here,\u201d Chism said. \u201cI want to go down in the same conversation as Cooper Kupp, Kendrick Bourne, and all those great receivers\u2026 You go out to Roos Field and see Coop’s records all over the place. People compare me to him, but I just want to be in the same conversation, not known as just another receiver.\u201d<\/p>\n","pull_quote":"","image":{"ID":87724,"id":87724,"title":"2024-9-21-at-Nevada-486","filename":"2024-9-21-at-Nevada-486-scaled.jpg","filesize":1055167,"url":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/01\/2024-9-21-at-Nevada-486-scaled.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/give\/news\/efton-chism\/2024-9-21-at-nevada-486\/","alt":"Efton
