Erwin Swiney was a ball-hawking Nebraska corner with elite turnover instincts
In the 2001 season, Erwin Swiney was a proven Nebraska veteran who played right corner, worked heavily in nickel and dime packages, and finished with 38 career pass breakups — third in school history at the time. His edge was instincts: he played with toughness, versatility, and a knack for getting his hands on the football rather than just covering grass. The big-picture fit is simple: if you want a savvy, physical corner who can survive in multiple sub-package roles and bring veteran reliability, Swiney checks that box.
