After no Cyclones were selected in the 2018 NFL Draft, marking the fourth-straight year without an Iowa State player being picked, several Cyclones signed free agency deals with NFL teams.

Wide receiver Allen Lazard, the most likely draft pick of the former Cyclones, signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Jaguars went 10-6 last season, winning the AFC South division title. They won two games in the playoffs before falling to the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game.

Three Cyclones signed with the Dallas Cowboys as well. Linebacker Joel Lanning, receiver Marchie Murdock and offensive lineman Jake Campos all signed with the Cowboys, who finished 9-7 last year for a second-place finish in the NFC East.
