Nabbed by Texans in seventh round
The Texans selected Lachey in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 255th overall.
ANALYSIS
Lachey racked up 28 catches in two different seasons (2022 and 2024) at Iowa, adding 231 receiving yards last season. Sandwiched in the middle was a significant ankle injury in 2023 that cost him all but three games. He managed only 8.3 yards per reception in 2024 after averaging at least 13.1 yards per catch in each of the three years prior. Lachey doesn't possess elite speed to stretch the field but should be serviceable as a run blocker if called upon and will try to claim a 53-man roster spot in camp.

Latches on with Jets in Reuter mock
Friday's five-round mock draft from Chad Reuter of NFL.com has Lachey going to the Jets in the fifth round.
ANALYSIS
Lachey had 398 receiving yards and four touchdowns in 2022 but otherwise failed to top 231 yards in a season or score a touchdown during his college career. He nonetheless has some shine as a prospect coming out of Iowa, since that program has consistently pumped out quality tight ends in recent years, including George Kittle, T.J. Hockenson and Sam LaPorta. The Jets would be an intriguing landing spot for Lachey given their lack of a clear starter at the position.
