Although they still have an important game ahead, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are slowly starting to prepare for the upcoming college football season. For this reason, Matt Rhule and Dylan Raiola‘s team has reportedly agreed to add an assistant of Andy Reid on Patrick Mahomes‘ Kansas City Chiefs to his coaching staff.
Nebraska finished its regular season with a record of six wins and six losses, falling short of the goals set at the beginning of the year. As a result, they have gradually started to make moves to plan for what’s to come.
According to college football reporter Pete Thamel, via his X (formerly Twitter) account, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are adding Chiefs assistant defensive line coach Terry Bradden to their staff as the new defensive line coach.
“Sources: Nebraska is set to hire KC Chiefs assistant DL coach Terry Bradden as the school’s new defensive line coach. He’s been with the Chiefs for eight seasons and the last four as the assistant defensive line coach,” Thamel stated.
