Former defensive tackle Mike Daniels and wide receiver Marvin McNutt will play in the 2012 Senior Bowl, which is scheduled to take place on Jan. 28 in Mobile, Ala.

Daniels, who started each of the last two seasons and was a team captain last season, finished with 67 tackles and nine sacks, with two of those sacks coming in the Hawkeyes’ 31-14 Insight Bowl loss to Oklahoma back on Dec. 30. For his career, Daniels finished with 123 tackles and 15.5 sacks.

Meanwhile, McNutt, who was also a team captain in 2011, had one of the more memorable individual seasons of any former Iowa player. The St. Louis native was consensus first-team all-Big Ten with 82 catches for 1,315 yards and 12 touchdown receptions as a senior, all three of which are new single-season records. He also set new school records last season for most receiving yards and touchdown receptions in a career.

This announcement comes one day after it was revealed former players Shaun Prater and Markus Zusevics will play in the East-West Shrine Game on Jan. 21.
