Nebraska's Edge Rushers: Key to Defensive Turnaround
Description
Nebraskas defensive edge rushers, led by Williams Nwaneri, are poised to elevate their game in 2026, with new coordinator Rob Aurich and coach Roy Manning aiming to improve the teams run defense. The group, which also includes seniors Cam Lenhardt and Anthony Jones, and sophomore Kade Pietrzak, showed potential in spring practice. While others like Willis McGahee, Mac Markway, and Jordan Ochoa could challenge for playing time, all eyes are on Nwaneri to deliver on his five-star potential. The teams success hinges on their ability to set the edge and stop big runs, as the offenses performance will not be enough to stabilize the defense.
