Nebraska’s high-motor edge terror with proven production
In the 2022 season, Garrett Nelson led Nebraska with 65 tackles, 9.0 tackles for loss, and 5.5 sacks, building on a 2021 season that featured 57 tackles and a team-high 11.5 tackles for loss and 5.0 sacks[2][11]. He’s the kind of front-seven grinder coaches love: relentless, physical, and disruptive, with a proven knack for collapsing plays and showing up in the run game and as a pass rusher[2][8]. The fit question is simple—if a team wants effort, edge-setting, and a player who plays like every snap is personal, Nelson checks a lot of boxes[2][8].
