High-upside tight end, but the knee saga has stalled his Husker rollout
Markway entered Nebraska with real Big Ten TE upside: a 6-foot-4, 250-pound frame, a four-star pedigree, and early LSU experience that included 3 catches for 16 yards and a touchdown in the 2023 season. The catch? He has yet to cash in on that promise in Lincoln after back-to-back ACL setbacks wiped out his 2024 and 2025 seasons. Coaches have praised his presence and character, and when healthy he profiles as a physical, in-line target who can raise a room’s ceiling — but any team needs to factor in major durability risk.
