Early life Trost was born on April 15, 2001, and grew up in Chicago, raised by his mother. He started playing football at a young age and was the starting left tackle at Kankakee High School, where he was an all-conference selection as both a junior and senior.

College career Trost started two games for Morgan State as a true freshman in 2019.

He then only appeared in two games, one as a starter, in 2021, due to injuries. Trost started 11 games during the 2022 season and eight games in 2023.
