Cooper DeJean is ready to begin his NFL career without any injury restrictions.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Tuesday the Iowa defensive back sent a letter to every team in the league that revealed he was medically cleared to return to all football activities and will hold an individual workout on April 8.

That workout will include all on-field testing and position work even though he suffered a broken fibula in November.

Despite the injury, DeJean was excellent during his final season at Iowa.

He was a consensus All-American who tallied 41 tackles, five passes defended and two interceptions while helping lead the Hawkeyes to the Big Ten Championship Game.
