Former Michigan St. standout offensive tackle and professional player Stefon Wheeler enters his fifth season at Wagner in 2018 and fourth heading up the coaching efforts of the Seahawk offensive line.
Wheeler arrived on Grymes Hill after serving three seasons as an assistant at his alma mater, Milford Academy, in Berlin, NY, and the last two seasons as Offensive coordinator/Recruiting coordinator.
After starring along the Milford offensive line in 2000, where he led the Falcons to a 10-3 record, Wheeler was awarded a full scholarship to Michigan State where he went on to start 35 games at left tackle. A two-time All-Big 10 Honorable Mention selection, he was voted to the Spartans First-Team All-Decade squad in 2012.
“Stefon Wheeler learned under Jeff Stoutland, who’s now the offensive line coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, he brings NFL playing experience to our program, and does a tremendous job with our offensive line,” said head coach Jason Houghtaling.
A 2005 Michigan St. graduate, Wheeler signed a free agent contract with the New Orleans Saints in 2006 and played in NFL Europa for the Cologne Centurions in 2007. While playing left tackle overseas, he helped open holes for the league's leading rusher. Later in 2007, Wheeler signed with the CFL's Toronto Argonauts.
