Roman Mangini brings special-teams grit and reliable depth to Nebraska’s receiver room
Mangini is a compact, versatile Nebraska wideout whose value shows up beyond the box score: in 2025 he played in 10 games as a key special-teams contributor while also working at receiver, and his background as a high-school safety helps explain his toughness, awareness, and willingness to do dirty work. In 2024 he recorded his first career catch, an 11-yard reception, and he profiles as a depth piece whose fit is strongest for teams that value effort, physicality, and roster flexibility over immediate star-volume production.
