WATCH: Nebraska football fall camp with Dana Holgorsen, Daikiel Shorts & players

The 2025 Nebraska football season – and Year 3 of the Matt Rhule Era – is underway.

The Huskers and their head coach finally got things underway on Monday morning with Practice No. 4 of preseason training camp.

Nebraska conducted its first fall camp practice on Monday morning, when the media was given a 20-minute open window to view practice. That open period gave Inside Nebraska an opportunity to discuss five observations that stood out the most.

Some of the highlights included Carter Nelson showcasing himself, Gunnar Gottula running with the 1s on the Nebraska offensive line, the quarterback work led by Dylan Raiola and offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen – in addition to quarterbacks coach Glenn Thomas – and new punter Archie Wilson showing off his leg.

Read those practice notes from Inside Nebraska staff writer Steve Marik here.

Nebraska then held practice on three consecutive days Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (today). Following the session on Thursday, a host of Huskers took to the podium to discuss the team’s progress thus far after the offseason – which featured an intense season of spring ball, summer workouts and plenty more.

Available to the media on Thursday morning were Holgorsen and wide receivers coach Daikiel Shorts Jr., in addition to three players – fifth-year senior offensive lineman Rocco Spindler, sophomore receiver Jacory Barney Jr. and junior receiver Janiran Bonner.

Prior to the assistants and players taking the podium, Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule made a brief appearance to begin the press conference by providing a major injury update. That video is also available to watch below.
