Experienced, ball-hawking Cincinnati corner with proven production
Stephens was a steady, high-volume playmaker for Cincinnati, finishing his Bearcats career with 140 tackles, 26 passes defended, six interceptions, and a forced fumble in 50 games[7]. His differentiator is versatility and feel for the ball—he produced across coverage and run support, which is exactly what coaches want from a dependable CB. He profiles as a smart, competitive defender who brings experience and toughness more than pure headline-grabbing athleticism, making him a fit for teams that value reliability, physicality, and proven instincts[7][2].
