Myles Mendeszoon is Iowa State’s do-it-all, high-motor defensive line anchor
Myles Mendeszoon is a reliable, physical Iowa State defensive end whose value goes beyond the box score: in 2024 he played all 14 games, posted 14 tackles, and led the Cyclones in special teams tackles for a second straight season with seven stops, while also helping create one of the year’s biggest momentum plays with a punt block against Baylor. He fits teams that want toughness, effort, and versatility more than flashy pass-rush numbers, and his steady role on defense and special teams suggests a player coaches can trust in multiple phases.[1][2]
