WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Indianapolis Colts tight end Dallas Clark has turned his autograph into money for disaster relief in Iowa.

The former University of Iowa football standout signed autographs Sunday at Jordan Creek Town Center in West Des Moines, asking people to donate $20 to help Iowans affected by flooding and tornadoes.

After signing autographs for more than four hours, Clark -- a Livermore, Iowa native -- raised more than $18,000.

Clark, who still lives in Livermore part of the year, says he wanted to do something to help Iowans affected by the floods and tornadoes.
