Some CD players can do that.
Yamaha CD-S300 has a front panel USB port,although it's only compatible with WMA & Mp3.
I'm sure there are others that are compatible with other file formats.
IIRC Tascam has some like that,CD-200SB & CD-240 both have USB and the CD-200SB also can accept SD/SDHC cards.
And I believe those can take various file formats beyond just WMA & Mp3.
Not the cheapest options mind you,but they can also be found used quite often.
Then there are options like a Raspberry Pi with a DAC add-on card like the HiFiBerry.
And I'm sure there are portable DACs like that too,but I dont really know that stuff off the top of my head that well.

Thanks. Now that I am searching for a CD player, I am getting some results. I was hoping for a much smaller device though. A stand alone chip player.

Most of the FiiO X series portable players use SD cards and provide headphone and a shared line out & S/PDIF digital port. They also function as a 192/24 USB and DSD DAC. The X5 lll also has balanced head phone output and capacity for (2) 256gB SD cards. It’s quite the Swiss Army knife of audio at $400.
Beat me to it.
