Nebraska’s offense has been decimated by injuries this season. The Huskers have lost three starters on the offensive line, multiple wide receivers, and their top two running backs.
Head coach Matt Rhule has cited special teams coach Ed Foley as helping the team overcome the injuries in more ways than one.
I think his ability all day long to talk to players one-on-one and to make sure guys understand what to do – even last week, the impact of the offensive line injuries, now Dylan Parrott goes out to be on the field goal team for the first time ever. It’s his first reps playing and to know that, ‘hey, I’m going to get live reps on Tuesday’ helped him. I think Ed does a phenomenal job of doing those different things and managing those players.
