Nebraska Football Roster Highlights Potential Starters, Injury Risks Ahead 2025

As Nebraska football prepares for the 2025 season, several key players are highlighted for their potential impact. Third-year lineman Gottula showed promise last year by effectively protecting freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola, though he faces competition from veterans Corcoran, Prochazka, and transfer Elijah Pritchett for playing time. Corcoran, a sixth-year tackle with 35 starts, aims to overcome recent injuries and contribute either as a starter or key substitute. Sophomore tight end Carter Nelson, known for his pass-catching ability and special teams contributions, is recovering from hip surgery and is expected to develop into a consistent every-down player. Additionally, four-star wide receiver Mills, who impressed coaches during spring practices with his speed and catching skills, is poised to make an immediate impact alongside quarterback Raiola. These players form a core group to watch as Nebraska looks to compete in the upcoming Big Ten schedule.
