Career Highlights | |

Nick Stevens (born January 3, 1980) is an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League.
Originally from St Marys in the VMFL, Stevens was recruited in the 1997 AFL Draft to the Port Adelaide Football Club where he became a very prominent outside/receiving midfielder.
At the end of the 2003 season, Stevens expressed a desire to return to his native Melbourne and wished to be traded to Collingwood. Port Adelaide were unable to obtain what they considered appropriate trade consideration and as a result, Stevens quit the club and entered the pre-season draft. He was subsequently drafted by Carlton and is one of the senior players at the club today.
Stevens has been involved in four pre-season premierships, with Port Adelaide in 2001 and 2002, and with Carlton in 2005 and 2007. He is the only man to have won two Michael Tuck Medals, winning the award in 2002 and 2007.
