Nick DeJong | WUW 686

from Washed Up Walkons Hosted by Tyler Kluver

On this episode we welcome former Iowa offensive lineman Nick DeJong. Nick recounts earning early playing time during a turbulent period for the Hawkeyes’ offensive line, including being undersized, battling injuries, and feeling dread and anxiety facing elite defenders like Aidan Hutchinson. The group swaps stories about brutal Iowa practices, conditioning, and extreme weigh-in tactics, plus outside criticism on social media. DeYoung reflects on leadership changes after Tyler Linderbaum, pride in teammates reaching the NFL, and his post-football life in medical sales, fitness coaching, and losing about 70 pounds.
