Roster reset: Movement so far and a Christmas wish list for each Nebraska football position group | Football



Wish list: The Huskers certainly would entertain the idea of adding another transfer (or 2022 player) if a true difference-maker is out there for the taking, but for this group, the best thing that can happen in the 2022 season is that Omar Manning, Zavier Betts and company flourish under Joseph’s tutelage. He’s already met with those two in particular, and the group as a whole. Garcia-Castaneda will compete for Toure’s spot and several young players have a chance to step into bigger roles, too.

Tight end

Movement: Record-setting Aurora native Austin Allen is off to the NFL.

Wish list: This is among the more stable groups on the roster. The wish list is that Sean Beckton keeps it going into 2022 with Travis Vokolek, Thomas Fidone, Chance Brewington and others. In particular, a big jump and healthy offseason from Fidone could put the Huskers in great position to again have a deep, productive tight end group for years into the future.

Offensive line

Movement: Matt Sichterman’s college football days are finished and Cam Jurgens declared for the NFL Draft. NU signed freshman Justin Evans-Jenkins and has a portal addition in versatile grad transfer Kevin Williams Jr. The new position coach is former Chicago Bears assistant offensive line coach Donovan Raiola.
