Iowa Defense 2026: Reload or Replace | Iowa Hawkeyes Football News
Description
Iowa’s defense is poised for a rebuild under Phil Parker, with key departures on the defensive line but promising newcomers like Kahmari Brown and Kenneth Merrieweather ready to step up. The linebacker corps is anchored by veteran Jayden Montgomery and rising sophomore Cam Buffington, while the secondary features reliable starters Zach Lutmer and Deshaun Lee, with depth at safety thanks to transfers Tyler Brown and Anthony Hawkins. With a proven system and a focus on reloading, the Hawkeyes aim to keep their elite defense humming despite the transition.
