WATCH: Iowa TE TJ Hockenson doing it all with bulldozing block, impressive TD grab

Sophomore TE TJ Hockenson is turning into quite a weapon for the Hawkeyes.

Iowa is no stranger to strong TE play, and Hockenson is continuing that trend this season. He scored a rushing touchdown last weekend against Minnesota on an impressive trick play, and he is doing it all in the game against Indiana.

His first highlight came in the blocking game as he recorded a pancake on this play. Hockenson drove his man yards downfield and finished it by driving him into the ground.

The Hawkeyes would go on to finish the drive with a touchdown throw to Hockenson. QB Nate Stanley put the ball up in the back of the end zone, and Hockenson elevated nicely in going over the top for the grab.

The BTN shared the video of the catch:

Noah Fant isn’t the only @HawkeyeFootball TE opponents need to fear.

Hockenson is truly a complete TE and should be a solid presence on the offense moving forward.
