Nebraska Braces for Dylan Raiola Transfer Decision as Rhule Downplays Report

Coach Matt Rhule downplayed a report of portal interest during Raiola's rehab from a Nov. 1 broken fibula.

Overview

  • CBS Sports reports Nebraska is preparing for the possibility that Dylan Raiola will explore the transfer portal this offseason ahead of the Jan. 2 window opening.
  • Rhule told reporters he had not seen the report and noted Raiola was in treatment, offering no confirmation of any plans to leave.
  • Raiola has been sidelined since a broken fibula on Nov. 1, and multiple reports indicate the injury is not expected to delay his 2026 readiness.
  • Raiola earned about $3.5 million this season as Nebraska's highest‑paid player, and the program is expected to increase NIL/rev‑share spending to retain key talent, per CBS Sports.
  • Freshman TJ Lateef has produced 653 passing yards with four touchdowns, no interceptions and a 70.4% completion rate, as roster questions grew after brother Dayton Raiola decommitted from the 2026 class.
