Iowa’s NFL Draft pro day: What we learned about Cooper DeJean, position switches and more
New York TimesIOWA CITY, Iowa — Cooper DeJean’s path back to health is nearing its conclusion, and the likely first-round defensive back has set April 15 as his workout day. “I’d say I’m pretty close,” DeJean said at Iowa’s pro day on Monday. Players’ participation ranged from minimal to none like DeJean, punter Tory Taylor, defensive tackle Logan Lee and tight end Erick All to those seeking a likely free-agent path like receiver Nico Ragaini, defensive tackle Noah Shannon, offensive lineman Rusty Feth and defensive end Joe Evans. “Really my pitch is that I’ll play anywhere,” Evans said, “that you’re going to get some guy that’s going to just work his ass off every single day and do all the little things.” That’s not a foreign concept to Evans, who played quarterback in high school and originally walked on to play linebacker.
