In somewhat unsurprising news, junior tight end Noah Fant has decided to leave the Iowa football team and begin preparing for the 2019 NFL Draft. His departure is effective immediately meaning the last regular season game against Nebraska will be the last time we will have seen the athletic tight end play in the black and gold.
Fant’s time in Iowa City has been one of many fond memories and great plays, but unfortunately it was somewhat overshadowed this past season by Fant’s limited playing time and the controversy that ensued. None of this, for the record, instigated by Fant himself.
