reliable Iowa TE with NFL traits, but the injury file still matters
In the 2024 season, Luke Lachey caught 28 passes for 231 yards for Iowa, and his calling cards remain clean hands, strong concentration at the catch point, and willingness to block with a stout base[1][2]. He’s the kind of tight end who can move the chains and survive contact, but he doesn’t win with burst or run-after-catch juice, and his recent foot/ankle issues add real durability questions for any team eyeing him as a fit[1][2].
