named the Big Ten’s Special Teams Player of the Week

The Hawkeyes played far and away their best overall game of the season on Saturday. Iowa dominated all three phases of the game against Michigan State, but perhaps none stood out quite as much as the stellar special teams play.

Freshman punter Tory Taylor has stolen the hearts of Kirk Ferentz and Hawkeye fans alike through three weeks, but on Saturday we saw punt returner Charlie Jones break through as a potential star.

A walk-on transfer from Buffalo, Jones came to Iowa City as a redshirt sophomore and had to sit out the 2019 season.
