DJ Johnson will spend the rest of his career away from the Iowa football program. After two years with the Hawkeyes, DJ announced on Twitter that he was entering the transfer portal with three years of eligibility remaining.

Iowa football is going to be starting the season without DJ Johnson, who played in 11 games last year, starting in one and for the most part holding his own.
