Starting right tackle Jacob Gannon has left Iowa State for "personal reasons" team spokesman Mike Green told reporters Thursday.

Bobby La Gesse of the Ames Tribune reports that former ISU offensive lineman Zach Spears said Gannon quit the team because he is “burned out."

Gannon started 13 games for Iowa State, including the Cyclones' season opener against North Dakota State last Saturday. NDSU won, 34-14.

According to La Gesse, redshirt freshman Jake Campos will likely take over at right guard. Iowa State plays No. 20 Kansas State on Saturday.
