Healthy; Redshirt candidateColeman did not see the field during Saturday’s 40-7 win over UTEP, and remains a likely redshirt candidate for the Huskers, Amie Just of the Lincoln Journal Star reports.
Impact A whopping 107 players saw the field for Nebraska during the Cornhuskers’ season opener according to Mitch Sherman of The Athletic, and despite head coach Matt Rhule assuring reporters that Coleman was healthy, he was not one of them. The 6-foot-5 sophomore wideout, who tallied eight receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown in 2023, seems likely to preserve his eligibility and redshirt this season.

Impact Coleman missed spring practice with a shoulder injury but appears to be fully healthy with just over three weeks before the season begins. He had a solid end to last season as a true freshman, so he should be a factor in the Cornhuskers’ offense.

Huals in long TD in winColeman totaled one reception (on two targets) for 44 yards and one touchdown during Saturday’s 17-9 win over Northwestern.
Impact Coleman caught just his second pass of the season when he settled under a deep pass into the end zone from quarterback Heinrich Haarberg on Saturday. The true freshman wideout did not log a statistic through his first four games of the season, but he’s begun to see significant playing time due to a rash of injuries in Nebraska’s receiver room. As a result, it seems likely that Coleman will continue seeing a fair share of targets alongside fellow wideout Alex Bullock and tight end Thomas Fidone.
