Texas DE with depth-chart value, but little 2026 on-field footprint yet
In the 2026 season, Steven Andrade appears to be a depth piece for Texas rather than a proven stat producer, with the most recent roster/depth-chart data showing him on the Longhorns’ defensive line but not among the headline edge names. What stands out is the opportunity: he’s in a program that values size, rotation, and relentless line play, so his fit hinges on whether he can translate practice-time traits into game-speed disruption. For a team shopping for immediate impact, he’s more projection than plug-and-play right now.
