Billy Weivoda brings rangy, disruptive linebacker upside to Iowa
Weivoda is a three-star 2026 linebacker who committed to Iowa after a breakout junior year at Milton, where he posted 89 tackles, 13 tackles for loss and 8.5 sacks in 2024 and helped power back-to-back state-title runs. He stands out for his versatility: he can rush off the edge, chase sideline to sideline and hold up in coverage, which fits Iowa’s linebacker DNA nicely. The Hawkeyes are getting a high-motor, physical defender with production and special-teams juice — the kind of player who can be annoying for offenses in all the best ways.
