Jeremy Hecklinski - Starting quarterback for Week 6 Hecklinski will start Friday's game at Washington but could end up available in an emergency role, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.
Impact Iowa will lean on Hecklinski with Hank Brown (shoulder) not at 100 percent for Friday's game. The former has played in three of Iowa's games this season, but he did not always show a promising output. In Week 1, Hecklinski completed fewer than half of his 16 pass attempts, and while the QB threw a touchdown, he also recorded an equal number of interceptions. Hecklinski gradually improved over his next two games, culminating in a 5-for-5 passing performance for 67 yards against Ohio State.

Hank Brown - Likely out, may be available in emergency Brown (shoulder) is not expected to play in Friday's game at Washington but could end up available in an emergency role, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.
Impact Even though Brown previously expressed confidence in his availability for Week 6, his head coach Kirk Ferentz said otherwise, and the head coach backed up his statement based on Thamel's report. Jeremy Hecklinski will start Week 6, and if he goes down, the lack of proven options under center may lead the Hawkeyes to use Brown instead of leaning on their other backups. It is still unlikely, as is Brown logging a starter-level stat line in Iowa's second conference game on the road this season.

Mason Woods - Not playing Friday Woods (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game at Washington.
Impact Woods won't be an option for this Week 6 matchup. The TE has been limited to two catches for 22 yards on three targets this season, so his absence won't matter much from a fantasy perspective.

Hank Brown - Questionable for Week 6 Brown (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game at Washington, per the Big Ten availability report.
Impact Brown's status is uncertain for Friday, with a previous report indicating that he was "really limited." The quarterback sprained the AC joint in his shoulder but was noted to have been tossing the ball during practice, so he is testing his injury. He will look to progress over the coming days to give himself a chance to play.

Hank Brown - Described as "really limited" by head coach Brown (shoulder) was described as "really limited" by his head coach Kirk Ferentz, per David Eickholt of 247Sports.com.
Impact Ferentz opened his Week 6 presser by deeming Brown questionable for the Hawkeyes' tilt with Washington on Friday night. Brown told reporters that he expects to play in Seattle, but Ferentz' characterization of his injury comes across as much less certain in regards to his QB1's status. If Brown can't go, Jeremy Hecklinski will draw the start for Iowa.

Hank Brown - Expects to play in Week 6 Brown (shoulder) announced Tuesday that he expects to play in Friday's game at Washington, David Eickholt of 247Sports reports.
Impact Brown recently sprained the AC joint in his shoulder. But by throwing the ball in Tuesday's practice, he looks focused on playing in Iowa's next game, even if he still needs a bit of rehab. Perhaps the Big Ten injury report will clear his name going into the Iowa-Washington game.
OCTOBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Tony Diaz - Scoreless once again Diaz caught 5 of 9 targets for 59 yards during Saturday's 31-14 loss versus Ohio State.
Impact Diaz saw an increase in volume on the day as the Hawkeyes were forced to all but abandon the run game against a stout Ohio State defense. The 5-foot-10 receiver finished second on the team behind tight end DJ Vonnahme in both receptions and yards on the day, outpacing his fellow receivers by substantial margins in both categories. Diaz will hope to find his way back into the end zone for the first time since Week 1 when the Hawkeyes travel to face Washington on Friday.
OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE
Braeden Jackson - Short score in defeat Jackson logged one carry for two yards and one touchdown and gathered in 1 of 2 targets for 12 yards during Saturday's 31-14 defeat to Ohio State.
Impact Jackson was limited to just a single carry on a day in which the Hawkeyes were held to just 39 yards on the ground on a putrid 1.9 YPC. Jackson's one attempt did produce a two-yard touchdown, Iowa's only score on the day. The 5-foot-11 sophomore will be hoping for a more expanded workload when the Hawkeyes travel to face Washington on Friday.
OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE
Kamari Moulton - Rough outing vs. Buckeyes Moulton accrued 11 carries for 27 yards during Saturday's 31-14 defeat against Ohio State.
Impact Moulton had another tough day on Saturday, totaling a season-low 27 yards on the ground on just 2.5 YPC. Despite the poor performance, the 5-foot-9 running back still received the heavy majority of rushing attempts on the day, indicating his spot atop the pecking order in the Iowa backfield remains steady for now. He will hope for better days when the Hawkeyes travel to face Washington on Friday.
