Ty Myles brings early 2025 impact and downhill physicality to NIU’s secondary
Ty Myles, a senior safety for Northern Illinois, has already flashed immediate production in 2025 with 6 tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss in his first game, signaling a defender who plays with urgency and contact balance rather than just padding coverage stats.[2] His value goes beyond box scores: the 5-foot-10, 191-pound safety profile suggests a compact, physical run supporter who can fit NIU’s hard-nosed defensive identity and compete for snaps right away.[2]
