When Steen, now with the Miami Dolphins, caught up with The Palm Beach Post’s Joe Schad, he talked about dealing with injuries that season. He said players continuing to play when they shouldn’t is a problem in Tuscaloosa:

But Steen, who is known as a tough competitor, seems regretful that a required shoulder surgery did not occur until after the conclusion of his final Alabama regular season. Steen suggested he should not have been playing.

“Football, a lot of it is mentally,” Steen said. “If you can work through pain, you can go. But at ‘Bama, that was the problem. A lot of things you went through and you shouldn’t have. You should have stayed off of it. That’s why a lot of guys from Bama are hurt.”
