Miami secondary coach Jahmile Addae coached Stevenson for his final season with the Hurricanes, during which Stevenson had two interceptions and nine passes defended. He said he and Bears coach Matt Eberflus talked about him being old school in terms of his physicality. What did you see from him in that regard?
Yeah, I think he would fit in in the old-school days of no chin straps and no face masks. He’s a tough kid, and he’s not contact-shy at all. That’s refreshing to see, especially at the corner position. Sometimes they label these guys these days as coverage corners, and he’s not that. In fact, he probably has just as much of a safety skill set while playing corner as I’ve seen since I’ve been coaching.
