Makana Meyer brings local grit and depth value to Hawaii’s secondary
Meyer is a compact, physical defensive back for Hawaii who brings hometown toughness, special-teams value, and roster flexibility more than headline-grabbing stats. In the 2025 season, he logged 10 tackles and entered 2026 listed as a redshirt junior/safety option, which suggests the staff trusts his reliability and versatility[1][9][10]. His Hawaii bio also notes a high-school résumé built on interceptions, tackles for loss, and all-purpose production, so he fits the profile of a feisty, multi-use DB who can help a team with intensity and willingness to do the dirty work[5].
