Northwestern starting quarterback Aidan Chiles has been ruled out for the team's upcoming game against Iowa, according to a report from Hawkeyes Wire. The announcement comes ahead of the Big Ten matchup scheduled for November 7, 2026.
Chiles, who has been the Wildcats' primary signal-caller this season, will miss the conference contest against the Hawkeyes. The specific reason for his absence was not detailed in the initial report by Scout Springgate.
Northwestern will need to turn to its backup quarterback options for the Iowa game. The Wildcats' offensive game plan will likely adjust with a different starter under center against a traditionally strong Hawkeyes defense.
