“Mac” Steen, an American football player for the Florida Gators, died October 2, 2026, aged 78. Born in West Point, New York, on June 30, 1948, he attended the University of Florida and played tackle for the Gators from 1967 to 1969 under coach Ray Graves.
A prominent presence on the team’s line, Steen was named senior captain in 1969, his final season with Florida. His years with the program placed him among the Gators’ players at the end of the 1960s, and Graves rated him the team’s best right tackle of that decade. The coach’s assessment singled out Steen’s work at the position, while his captaincy reflected a separate responsibility within the team in his senior year. The football field was one part of Steen’s professional life: he later worked as an orthodontist. His education at the University of Florida preceded a three-season college playing career there, followed by work in orthodontics. He was known both by his full name, Malcolm E. Steen, and as Mac.
