Nebraskas defense gets a toughness boost with new transfer linebacker Dexter Foster. The six-foot-three, 236-pound Oregon State alum started seven games last season, recording 52 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 4 quarterback hurries, and a pass breakup. Fosters physical presence and experience make him a day-one contributor in Lincoln. He anchors the middle in Nebraskas four-two-five scheme, with room to grow in lateral quickness, coverage skills, and pass-rush timing. Fosters arrival has raised the bar for the Huskers front seven, setting the stage for a more aggressive defense in the 2026 season.
