A pair of Iowa Hawkeye football players are among the honorees announced Monday on day one of the Big Ten Media Days.
A select media panel chose this year’s 10-member preseason list, including five representatives each from the East and West divisions.
The Hawkeyes were represented by senior quarterback C.J. Beathard and senior defensive back Desmond King.
King headlines this year’s preseason honors list after the consensus first-team All-American took home the Jim Thorpe and Jack Tatum awards as the nation’s top defensive back in 2015 and was a finalist for the Walter Camp Foundation Player of the Year award last season.
