  Draft Scout by Conference









  Nebraska has updated its roster - currently at 151 players - for the 2022 football season, and debuted two new position designations that better reflect the changing nature of football and NU's defensive alignment. Outside linebackers have now become EDGE players who hover near the line of scrimmage and may play with their hand on the ground, like a defensive end, or in a two-point stance, like an outside linebacker in a 3-4 or 5-2. Nine players - Garrett Nelson, Caleb Tannor, Ochaun Mathis, Jimari Butler, Blaise Gunnerson, Jake Appleget, Simon Otte, Braden Klover and Ryan Schommmer - have the EDGE designation.

NU also has NICK - for nickel back position - that was previously manned by three-year starter JoJo Domann. The NICK spot features a hybrid linebacker/safety athlete who is asked to play the outside run while also covering tight ends and slot receivers in various coverage schemes. Six players - Isaac Gifford, Chris Kolarevic, Javin Wright, Gage Stenger, Grant Buda and John Bullock - have the NICK designation. - Lincoln Journal Star
