As the current landscape of college football continues to shift and evolve, it can be hard to keep up with everything, especially inside a program as jam-packed and constantly moving as Nebraska football.
That includes team rosters and what the scholarship distribution looks like under the upcoming 105-man scholarship limits across the sport. Every team in the country is going to have a steady stream of players coming in and going out.

With that in mind, the chart below is a rundown of the Huskers’ 2025 team roster. This is their current rosterfor the 2025 season. It is not a list of Nebraska’s official 105-man scholarship roster. Rather, it is the roster recently updated on the team’s official website following the Huskers’ signing of 20 high school recruits in the Class of 2025 and adding 16 players out of the transfer portal.
Those 36 new additions this offseason placed Nebraska at No. 13 in Rivals’ 2025 Comprehensive Team Rankings (featuring the No. 4 transfer class and No. 19 recruiting class), which includes five transfers ranked inside the Top 50 overall and six high school signees ranked in the Rivals250.
The players’ positions and classes are unofficial and taken from the team’s website. In the case of the Huskers’ 2025 signees, there are a few that are our best educated guesses as to the position where they will begin their college careers before some inevitable shifting around – either on offense, defense or even a flip from one side of the ball to the other.
