Myles Ward brings proven kick-return juice and reliable slot-speed value for Northwestern State
In the 2019 season, Myles Ward emerged as a dangerous special-teams weapon for Northwestern State, averaging 25.6 yards per kickoff return and scoring a 94-yard return touchdown, while also contributing as a receiver with 8 catches for 101 yards and a score.[9][11][1] The appeal is his burst: he’s a compact 5-10 playmaker with return-game explosiveness, enough versatility to help on offense, and a track record of earning preseason all-conference recognition.[3][11] He’s the kind of low-frills, high-energy spark plug that can flip field position and sneak onto the field in multiple roles.[9][11]
