Luke Lachey News, Rumors, Updates - Iowa Hawkeyes | FOX Sports

Off injury report Lachey (undisclosed) isn't listed on Iowa's injury report ahead of its tilt with UCLA.

Impact Lachey should be good to go against the Bruins. The tight end missed last week against Wisconsin, but it appears as if his ailment will only keep him out of one game. The tight end should resume his starting role immediately.

Doubtful vs. Bruins Lachey (undisclosed) is doubtful to play against UCLA, David Eickholt of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Lachey missed Iowa's game against Wisconsin, and wasn't on the depth chart released for Week 11. Thus, it's unsurprising the tight end is doubtful to play. In his stead, Zach Ortwerth should continue to see more opportunities as a receiver.

Absent from depth chart Lachey (undisclosed) isn't listed on Iowa's depth chart ahead of its Week 11 clash with UCLA, John Steppe of The Cedar Rapids Gazette reports.

Impact The starting tight end and top Hawkeyes' receiving threat looks primed to miss another game as he's not listed on Iowa's depth chart ahead of its Friday clash with UCLA. Zach Ortwerth should continue to see snaps, and he showed promise against Wisconsin last week with three grabs for 66 yards.

DNP Saturday Lachey (undisclosed) did not play in Iowa's 42-10 victory over Wisconsin on Saturday.

Impact Lachey was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Saturday's game with an undisclosed injury, but the senior tight end was unable to play against the Badgers. Lachey has struggled this year after being viewed as a potential breakout candidate going into the season, catching 24 passes for 209 scoreless yards through eight games for the Hawkeyes. The details and severity of his injury are thus far unknown, but Lachey will hope to recover in time for Friday's game against UCLA.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Saturday Lachey (undisclosed) has been added to Iowa's injury report ahead of Saturday's game against Wisconsin.

Impact It is unclear what prompted the Hawkeyes to downgrade Lachey to questionable ahead of their showdown with the Badgers, but it is worth monitoring as we approach kickoff. The 6-foot-6 senior has been a significant piece in Iowa's passing attack, totaling 24 receptions for 209 yards across eight outings this season.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Solid day in opener Lachey caught 6 of 8 targets for 63 yards during Saturday's 40-0 win against Illinois State.

Impact Death, taxes and Iowa leaning on tight ends. Lachey led the team in receptions and targets on the day as the Iowa offense took off in the second half against Illinois State, though the overall offensive explosion did allow for production from a number of passcatchers. Freshman receiver Reece Vander Zee led the team in receiving yards and found the end zone twice on the day, indicating that Lachey's role as the top option in the offense may not be as locked in as previously thought. The senior tight end will likely still continue to see plenty of opportunities moving forward, with the next opportunity coming against in-state rival Iowa State on Saturday.

Reels in TD during Music City Bowl Lachey hauled in three of seven targets for 36 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 21-0 victory over Kentucky in the Music City Bowl.

Impact Lachey recorded the lone offensive touchdown of the game, catching a hitch route at the 10-yard line before eluding the nearest defender on his way up the field to the pylon. The Hawkeyes defense then went on to notch yet another virtuoso with two first-half pick-sixes against Kentucky freshman quarterback Destin Wade, who started in place of NFL-bound signal-caller Will Levis. Lachey ultimately finished as Iowa's No. 2 receiver behind senior tight end Sam LaPorta (five receptions, seven targets, 56 yards) in this limited outing for redshirt freshman quarterback Joe Labas (14-for-24 passing, 139 yards, one touchdown). With LaPorta set to graduate, Lachey will likely be the top candidate to carry on Iowa's tradition of dominant tight ends along with Michigan transfer Erick All, who committed to Iowa in mid-December.

Tops receiving corps in loss Lachey caught four of his five targets for 84 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 27-14 loss to Michigan.

Impact Lachey finished as the Hawkeyes' leading pass catcher in yardage, as he added a late five-yard receiving score from quarterback Spencer Petras (21-of-31 passing, 246 yards, one touchdown) in the waning seconds of Saturday's loss. However, most of the sophomore's production came after the Hawkeyes fell down 20-0 early in the third quarter. Lachey also recorded fewer receptions and targets than No.1 tight end Sam LaPorta (five receptions, seven targets, 24 yards), so his production figures to return to his previous per-game from the first four weeks of the season (1.3 receptions, 1.3 targets, 14.3 yards).
