Temple gets a two-way playmaker in Eyan Stead
Eyan Stead is a compact, versatile 2026 Temple signee from Roman Catholic who stood out as a two-way threat, pairing reliable hands and after-catch juice with disruptive defensive production. In his senior season, he posted 49 catches for 726 yards and 11 touchdowns, plus 30 tackles, 4.0 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, and three interceptions; earlier coverage also pegged him as one of the top players in the state. The fit makes sense: he brings competitive toughness, flexibility, and proven game-impact ability that suggests Temple is getting more than just a depth piece.
