Tony Steward
Pos: LB   Height: 6-1   Weight: 235   Hometown: Hastings, FL (Pedro Menendez HS)   Years Played: 2011 - 2013



Player Photo Dabo just said that LB Tony Steward's medical redshirt request for last season was denied. Steward tore his ACL again, and the team hoped he would be able count last season as a redshirt but it was denied by NCAA.

He will officially be a sophomore next season, and Dabo said he should be released my medical staff in May.
