Morphology

trampler = trample (transparent) = trample + er

Agentive '-er' attached to the verb 'trample' yields 'one who tramples', a straightforward derivation.

Etymology

Trampler is made from the verb trample and the ending -er, which means 'one who does something', so it literally means 'one who tramples'. Because trample means to press down or stamp on something, a trampler can be a person or animal that hurts others by walking or jumping on them.
