South Dakota State’s dynamic receiving duo of Dallas Goedert and Jake Wieneke are looking forward to playing on Sundays in the NFL.
Goedert became a second round draft pick over the weekend by the Eagles and Wieneke has signed a free agent contract with the Vikings.
Goedert was the 49th overall pick and the third tight end taken in the 2018 draft.
A Britton native, Goedert was a unanimous All-America selection as both a junior and senior. He posted back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons, tallying 1,293 yards and 11 touchdowns on a single-season school-record 92 receptions as a junior, followed by 72 catches for 1,111 yards and seven scores as a senior in 2017.
Four-time All-America wide receiver Jake Wieneke signed a free agent contract with the Minnesota Vikings. The Maple Grove, Minnesota, native set Jackrabbit and Missouri Valley Football Conference career records with 288 receptions, 5,157 receiving yards and 59 receiving touchdowns.
Receiving invitations to upcoming minicamps were center Jacob Ohnesorge (Seattle Seahawks) and Kellen Soulek (Indianapolis Colts).
