Scouting Verdict

Phil Steele preseason 3RD-TEAM All-American Conference corner. Two seasons at UCLA — played all 12 games in 2025 with a fumble-recovery TD on the punt unit vs. Washington — and joined Rice in January as a projected starter. Power-conference reps with the production still ahead of him.

Ceiling · 7.0

2026 rotation (DB2) — some opportunity; real room to grow (+1.8) · AAC draft-temper.

Floor · 3.8

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.4.
