The NFL Draft came to a close Saturday but that doesn’t necessarily end the NFL dreams of college athletes. Players not drafted can be brought in to rookie mini camps.
Five UNI Panthers got an invite. Quarterback Eli Dunne received a camp invite from the Atlanta Falcons, kicker and current Waverly-Shell Rock science teacher Austin Errthum was invited to Chiefs camp in Kansas City, defensive tackle Bryce Douglas and defensive end Rickey Neal Jr. were invited to camp with the Minnesota Vikings and after a strong pro day, tight end Elias Nissen was invited to camp with the Chicago Bears.
