Iowa football offers former Idaho WR, blue-chip transfer portal target

Former Idaho Vandals wide receiver Jordan Dwyer reported an offer from the Iowa Hawkeyes on Sunday afternoon.

It’s the latest transfer portal development for Iowa as first-year Hawkeye offensive coordinator Tim Lester looks to continue filling out his offensive personnel with talented playmakers.

Dwyer enjoyed a breakout 2024 season with the Vandals. The 6-foot, 195 pound wide receiver racked up 1,192 receiving yards on 78 grabs and had 12 touchdown grabs.

Playing at the FCS level, Dwyer recorded five games with 100-plus receiving yards this past season.

Dwyer tallied 29 receptions, 489 receiving yards and five touchdowns during the Vandals’ final three games of the 2024 season. That included Idaho’s two FCS playoff games.

Dwyer ends his time at Idaho with 109 catches for 1,651 yards and 18 touchdowns in 31 career games.

According to 247Sports, Dwyer is a four-star transfer portal target. 247Sports ranks Dwyer as the nation’s No. 7 wide receiver and as its No. 17 player overall.

A native of Puyallup, Wash., Dwyer signed with Idaho as a three-star prospect, as the No. 39 player from Washington and as the country’s 222nd-ranked wide receiver.

Iowa officially signed former Auburn quarterback Hank Brown out of the transfer portal on Monday. The Hawkeyes also hosted former Northern Illinois wide receiver Trayvon Rudolph over the weekend.
