AMES, Iowa – For the second-straight season, Iowa State wide receiver Jaylin Noel has been named to the Paul Hornung Award Watch List presented by Texas Roadhouse. The award is given annually to the most versatile player in major college football.
A Second Team All-Big 12 selection a season ago, Noel finished with 66 receptions for 820 yards and seven touchdowns. His 66 catches were the seventh-most in a single season in ISU history and the fourth-most among Big 12 players last season.
The Kansas City, Mo. native has a reception in 32 consecutive games, tied for the fourth-longest active streak nationally and the fourth-longest streak in school history, and multiple receptions in 15-straight games.
Noel also handled kick and punt return duties for the Cyclones in 2023 and averaged 8.5 yards per punt return and 27.2 yards per kick return. He is the first FBS player since 2014 to have four 50-plus yard receptions, two 50-yard kick returns and two 30-yard punt returns in a season.
The Cyclones open the season August 31 against 2023 FCS Playoff qualifier North Dakota.
