Steen, a graduate transfer from Vanderbilt, arrived on campus for the Crimson Tide in the summer. He earned the starting position at left tackle, posting 24 knockdown blocks. He assisted an offense that ranked fifth nationally in scoring (40.8) despite Alabama not making the College Football Playoff. The 6-foot-5, 315-pounder allowed 4.5 sacks, 10 quarterback pressures, eight quarterback hits, and committed three penalties. Steen made Offensive Player of the Week from the coaching staff against Vanderbilt, Arkansas, and Auburn; however, he needs to clean up his technique in pass protection. The competition he will face during Senior Bowl practice should help him. As a South Florida native, Steen needs to improve his NFL Draft stock.
