The legacy of the Iowa Football program lives on through the numerous NFL tight ends the program has produced.
The Iowa program has been affectionately called "Tight End U" for its ability to produce some of the best tight ends the NFL has even seen.
A few of the most memorable tight ends to play for Iowa are Dallas Clark, George Kittle, Noah Fant, T.J. Hockenson, and Sam LaPorta.
Iowa has been blessed with highly productive tight ends who have helped the offense find footing. The Iowa offense has struggled for nearly a decade, but the tight ends have provided a safety net to all the quarterbacks who have taken snaps under center.
