Arizona State’s Versatile, High-IQ Interior Lineman
Corey Stephens is a former three-star Arizona State lineman whose biggest edge has always been versatility, toughness, and football IQ — coaches valued him for being able to play multiple interior spots and even both sides of the line in his Sun Devil career. In the 2021 season, he appeared in all 12 games for Arizona State, which reinforces the “reliable depth piece” label that winning programs love. He also came in as a technically sound, stout prospect with strong intangibles and academic discipline, so he fits best with a team that wants a smart, assignment-clean lineman who can plug holes and keep the engine humming.
