Logan Jones (born October 19, 2001) is an American college football center for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Early life
A native of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Jones began playing football in the second grade.[1] He attended Lewis Central High School in Council Bluffs, where he played center, offensive tackle, defensive tackle, and defensive end for the football team.[2] Jones was rated as a three-star recruit and committed to play college football for the Iowa Hawkeyes over offers from schools such as Iowa State, Minnesota, and Nebraska.[2][3]
College career
Jones took a redshirt in 2020 before a knee injury limited to one game in 2021 at defensive tackle.[4] Ahead of the 2022 season, he was converted to a center following the graduation of Tyler Linderbaum and an injury to backup Mike Myslinski.[4] Jones earned third-team all-Big Ten Conference honors in 2023, followed by first-team honors in 2024.[5][6] In his final season at Iowa, Jones was again named First-team All-Big Ten. He also earned Unanimous First-team All-American honors[7] and was awarded the Rimington Trophy. He started 49 games at center for the Hawkeyes from 2022 through 2025.[8][9]
