Grant Stewart brings ball-hawking upside to UTEP’s secondary
Grant Stewart is a young UTEP safety with real takeaway juice, coming off a high school resume that included 29 tackles, three interceptions, eight pass breakups and a hurry in his senior season, and he arrived as a three-star defensive prospect with versatility to play safety or nickel. His differentiator is playmaking: UTEP and recruiting coverage pointed to him as a secondary weapon with enough range and instincts to disrupt throws, while his 5-foot-10 frame suggests more quickness-and-coverage fit than brute-force thumper. If a team wants a competitive, versatile defensive back with upside to grow into a reliable center-field or slot defender, he’s worth a look.
