Professional

In 2008 Stewart signed with Moss FK of the Norwegian Adeccoligaen, but was released midseason without an appearance. He later moved to Nybergsund IL. On February 13, 2009, he signed with the Carolina RailHawks of the USL First Division.[2]
After a year out of the game in 2010, Stewart returned to the field in 2011 when he signed with the NSC Minnesota Stars in the North American Soccer League. He was loaned to FC Dallas of Major League Soccer on August 15, 2011 for the remainder of the 2011 MLS season.[3] FC Dallas declined a purchase option at the end of the loan.[4]
Stewart scored his first goal for Dallas in a CONCACAF Champions League group stage match, scoring the match-winning goal in a 1–0 victory over Toronto FC.
On March 6, 2012, Minnesota traded Stewart to Fort Lauderdale Strikers in exchange for Martin Nuñez.[5]
