Iowa defensive back Cooper DeJean, a likely first-round pick and potential target of the Green Bay Packers in the 2024 NFL draft, has been cleared for football activities and will hold an individual pro day for teams on Monday, April 8, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
DeJean suffered a broken fibula during practice last November and required surgery, ending his final season at Iowa and preventing him from participating during key pre-draft events, such as the NFL Scouting Combine. Although he is returning from a significant injury, DeJean will get a chance to prove to NFL teams that he is an elite athlete and a top prospect in this year’s draft class.
