Shawn Steele II brings veteran-ballhawk energy to South Alabama’s secondary
In the 2021 season at South Alabama, Shawn Steele II arrived with a proven track record as a playmaking safety, coming off a 2020 campaign at Arkansas-Pine Bluff with 28 tackles, four pass breakups and an interception, and a 2019 season that included 46 tackles, three interceptions and 18 pass breakups. He stands out for range, ball skills and a knack for disrupting throws, which makes him a fit for a defense that wants experienced, instinctive back-end help. The big question is fit and freshness, since his value is tied to technique and anticipation more than raw flash.
