Iowa Football

The Iowa football coaching staff offered scholarships to four prospects in the 2023 and 2024 recruiting classes over the last week.

Five former Hawkeyes who went undrafted have signed with NFL teams. Here’s a breakdown of the situations awaiting them as they try to make it on 53-man rosters.

Here’s where Iowa, Iowa State and UNI players who were not drafted have signed. This list will be updated as more signings happen.

Iowa’s Dane Belton and Iowa State’s Enyi Uwazurike and Charlie Kolar heard their names called Saturday. Iowa’s Tyler Goodson was among the players to go undrafted.

Former Iowa safety/linebacker Dane Belton is headed to New York after the Giants took him in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft with the 114th overall pick.

Mount Vernon had its NFL first-round draft pick in 2020 with Tristan Wirfs. It was Solon’s turn with Tyler Linderbaum on Thursday night.

Tyler Linderbaum’s next head coach already expects him to be an immediate starter in Baltimore. His general manager anticipates him playing in Pro Bowls.

Tyler Linderbaum became the second Hawkeye offensive lineman in the last three years to be a first-round pick in the NFL Draft, joining Tristan Wirfs, after Thursday’s selection.

Former Solon coach Kevin Miller explains what it was like coaching Tyler Linderbaum in high school and what NFL teams can expect to get from Iowa's All-America center on the Hawk Off The Press podcast.

As Tyler Linderbaum is set to become the 19th Iowa offensive lineman drafted in the Kirk Ferentz era, his last two head coaches have high praise for who he is on and off the field.

Thursday night is another reminder of how bloated and self-important the NFL can be.

Since Iowa’s loss in the Citrus Bowl, Caleb Shudak has been hitting 65-yard field goals, meeting with NFL teams and patiently waiting to hear where he’ll pursue his NFL dream.

Who would be first-round picks from the Hawkeyes if there were do-over drafts?

Class of 2024 defensive lineman Brandon Davis-Swain picked Notre Dame over Iowa and other schools while Iowa offered scholarships to more prospects in the 2023 and 2024 recruiting classes.

The Gazette’s John Steppe will answer any questions about Iowa’s spring practice, the NFL Draft or any other Hawkeyes-related topic Wednesday night on The Gazette’s Facebook page.

Iowa’s Logan Jones is following a similar path from defensive line to center as unanimous All-American Tyler Linderbaum did four years ago. The new position already feels “more natural” to Jones.

Iowa’s open practice shed light on the Hawkeyes’ kicking and quarterback competition. At the same time, injuries limited the ability to truly evaluate the 2022 offensive line.

Iowa football had to deal with an “inordinate amount of injuries” this spring, including at Saturday’s open practice. Kirk Ferentz also gave an update on when his new advisory committee will be in place.

While Spencer Petras is the “overall” leader in Iowa’s 2022 quarterback battle, Kirk Ferentz said he’s keeping an “open mind” as Alex Padilla and Joe Labas also compete for the starting job.
