Former Hawkeye Sam LaPorta Set For Lions’ Mini-Camp

Two former Iowa standouts will take part in mini-camp with the Detoit Lions this weekend.

Tight end Sam LaPorta was taken by the Lions in the second round of last month’s NFL Draft. He will be joined by first round pick and former Hawkeye linebacker Jack Campbell.

Laporta is the latest in a long line of Iowa tight ends to get a shot at an NFL career.

LaPorta had 58 catches for the Hawkeyes this past season.
