We are counting down the top 50 Nebraska football players you need to know heading into the 2025 season.

(24) updates to this series since Updated 24 mins ago

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 50 Jacob Bower

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 50 Jacob Bower

Our Top 50 Nebraska football players to watch list begins with a walk-on who was placed on scholarship by Matt Rhule this spring.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 49 Kevin Gallic

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 49 Kevin Gallic

Kevin Gallic arrives as a one-year transfer portal addition who's set to fix one of Nebraska's most pressing needs.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 48 Tristan Alvano

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 48 Tristan Alvano

With Nebraska's starting kicking job seemingly set for a three-way camp competition, Alvano has the experience that could get him over the line.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 47 Jamir Conn

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 47 Jamir Conn

Where he'll line up remains to be seen, but Conn projects as one of Nebraska's top pass defenders.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 46 Sua Lefotu

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 46 Sua Lefotu

Lefotu's growth has slowed over the last two years with a redshirt and injuries, but he has the potential, and snaps, to make an impact this season.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 45 Amare Sanders

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 45 Amare Sanders

A highly-touted freshman that got snaps last season, Sanders figures to be a key part of Nebraska's deep secondary this fall.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 44 Sam Sledge

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 44 Sam Sledge

An Omaha native, Sledge is one of Nebraska's top interior offensive lineman and should push for a starting spot at the center position.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 43 Kyle Cunanan

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 43 Kyle Cunanan

A likely candidate to take NU's kickoffs, Cunanan will also be given the opportunity to win the starting kicker job once and for all.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 42 Mekhi Nelson

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 42 Mekhi Nelson

Mekhi Nelson's potential is one reason Nebraska football opted not to add a transfer running back.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 40 Tyler Knaak

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 40 Tyler Knaak

Nebraska does not have an offensive line set for the fall, but Tyler Knaak could likely factor in after moving from guard to tackle this spring.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 39 Mac Markway

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 39 Mac Markway

A former four-star recruit who caught three passes during his freshman season at LSU, Markway made a unique arrival at Nebraska before getting injured.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 38 Jaylen George

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 38 Jaylen George

More of an outside defensive lineman than an interior rusher, George should excel at setting the edge and stopping the run.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 37 Blye Hill

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 37 Blye Hill

He's dealt with injuries, but cornerbacks who stand at 6-foot-4 with strong tackling and pass coverage skills don't come around often.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 36 Teddy Prochazka

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 36 Teddy Prochazka

Transfer pickups and growing young players mean Teddy Prochazka is no longer locked into a starting role when healthy, but he could still earn one with a strong fall camp.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 35 Williams Nwaneri

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 35 Williams Nwaneri

One of Nebraska's biggest transfer additions of the offseason is poised to show off the skills that made him a five-star recruit in high school.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 34 Donovan Jones

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 34 Donovan Jones

As one of Nebraska's most promising young defensive backs, Jones is set for a major role at cornerback.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 33 Cortez Mills

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 33 Cortez Mills

Cortez Mills could be the next young Nebraska pass-catcher to star early in his career.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 32 Carter Nelson

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 32 Carter Nelson

Whether he takes on a bigger role at tight end or remains an offensive X-factor, Nelson will be a key part of the Husker offense in 2025.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 31 Turner Corcoran

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 31 Turner Corcoran

A key part of past Nebraska offensive lines, Turner Corcoran is expected to play a big part again for the unit this season if he can stay healthy this fall.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 29 Kwinten Ives

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 29 Kwinten Ives

Nebraska running back Kwinten Ives is the favorite to fill the short-yardage role in which Dante Dowdell thrived last season.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 28 Janiran Bonner

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 28 Janiran Bonner

Janiran Bonner mostly has earned a reputation as one of Nebraska's best blockers while paving the way for others on screens or short-yardage run plays.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 27 Willis McGahee IV

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 27 Willis McGahee IV

One of Nebraska’s most intriguing freshman defenders from a year ago, Willis McGahee IV will have a chance to be even more disruptive in his next college season.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 26 Jalyn Gramstad

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 26 Jalyn Gramstad

Nebraska ideally won’t need its second quarterback in a tight spot this season. If it does, Jalyn Gramstad will be the guy.

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 23 Andrew Marshall

Husker Camp Countdown: No. 23 Andrew Marshall

Andrew Marshall, a two-in-one playmaker, could be an upgrade for Nebraska on both defense and special teams as one of the program’s most intriguing offseason transfer additions.
