1 HOUR AGO • FOX SPORTS

Leading receiver in shutout victory Diaz caught 4 of 5 targets for 75 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-0 win versus Wisconsin.

Impact Diaz had a productive day for the Hawkeyes, leading the team with 75 receiving yards on four receptions against Wisconsin. The 5-foot-10 junior also connected with quarterback Hank Brown for a four-yard touchdown toss in the second quarter, his first since Week 1. Diaz cooled off following a hot start to the year but will hope to get things back on track down the stretch, with his next opportunity coming against Northwestern on Saturday.

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.

SEPTEMBER 27 • Associated Press

Low volume day Diaz caught both targets for 22 yards during Saturday's 55-0 victory versus Northern Iowa.

Impact Diaz saw just two targets on a day in which the Hawkeyes ran for over 400 yards and cruised to victory over FCS Northern Iowa. The low volume of targets can likely be attributed largely to game script and shouldn't be cause for concern for Diaz moving forward, as no Iowa receiver caught more than three passes on the day. Better days lie ahead, with his next opportunity coming at the Big House in a road matchup against Michigan.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Productive in rivalry win Diaz reeled in 8 of 12 targets for 95 yards during Saturday's 16-13 win versus Iowa State.

Impact While he was unable to find the end zone on the day, Diaz still managed to produce a productive outing. The 5-foot-10 receiver led the way for the Hawkeyes once again in both receptions and yards against Iowa State, outpacing the next nearest receiver in yards by over 60. Through two games, Diaz has looked the part of Iowa's WR1, though time will tell if that role continues to be productive come Big Ten season. One final tuneup against Northern Iowa awaits on Saturday.

Leading receiver in blowout opener Diaz gathered in 7 of 13 targets for 84 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-0 victory against Northern Illinois.

Impact Coming in from UT-Rio Grande Valley in the offseason, it wasn't certain what was to be expected of Diaz heading into the 2026 season. The 5-foot-10 receiver looked right at home in Iowa City during the season opener, pacing the team in both receptions and yards by wide margins while connecting with quarterback Hank Brown on a six-yard scoring strike to get the scoring started in the first quarter. Diaz commanded an impressive target share on the day, indicating that, while Iowa's passing game isn't exactly elite, he may still carry value moving forward. A rivalry matchup against Iowa State awaits on Saturday.
