About Linkin

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

"My gameplay style is aggressive, disciplined, and strategic. I pride myself on being a relentless competitor who never takes a play off. Using my size, speed, and football IQ, I aim to outsmart opponents, whether breaking through as a defensive end, shutting down plays as an outside linebacker, or contributing on special teams."

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

My mentality is focused, driven, and unshakable. I approach every practice, game, and challenge with a growth mindset, always looking for ways to improve and push my limits. I’m highly competitive but also a team player who values hard work, discipline, and accountability. Off the field, I’m approachable and focused, but when it’s time to compete, I bring intensity, focus, and determination.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Leadership: I aim to be a natural leader on and off the field, setting an example through effort and commitment. Teamwork: I thrive in team settings, always supporting and motivating my teammates to achieve our goals. Discipline: I maintain a rigorous routine, balancing academics, athletics, and growth. Community Service: I mentor younger players and participate in local sports programs.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Competing at a High Level: Growing up, I consistently competed against older and more experienced athletes, which pushed me to adapt and develop quickly.Managing Big Emotions: Balancing my passion for the game and learning to channel emotions productively has been a key area of growth.Transition to U.S. Football: Moving from Canadian football, in 2024 to the U.S. system presented new challenges.

What type of college are you looking for?

A college with a competitive football program and a strong academic reputation in business, and law to align with my interests. A program that emphasizes academic and athletic balance, preparing me for success both on and off the field. A team culture that values leadership, discipline, and accountability, helping me grow as a player and as a person. A supportive environment for player development

Stevens has a unique skill set in that he’s a budding pass-rusher, but when he moves off the ball, he’s at his best in coverage. We currently have him listed as a linebacker, but a move to edge in our system isn’t out of the question. Either way, he has an athletic profile and physicality that should have FBS schools flocking to Christ School to see.
