Nyziah Hunter News: Leading receiver in opener

Hunter reeled in 6 of 10 targets for 65 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 20-17 win over Cincinnati.

Hunter put together a productive day for the Cornhuskers, totaling a team-high 65 yards while tying the team lead with six receptions. The 6-foot-1 receiver found the end zone on a five-yard scoring strike from quarterback Dylan Raiola just before halftime, giving the Cornhuskers a 10-point lead at the time. With 10 targets, Hunter's overall volume is very encouraging to see and should keep him in the conversation of fantasy relevance moving forward. His next opportunity will come against Akron on Saturday.
