Nebraska WR Niles Paul Out Friday Against Buffs

2

With Taylor Martinez nursing an injured ankle, the Nebraska offense got another piece of bad news. Leading WR Niles Paul has broken his foot and will miss this Friday's game against Colorado. With the Huskers already struggling in the passing game department, this is a large blow to an offense that has been sputtering the past few weeks. Nebraska will be without top receiver Niles Paul when the Cornhuskers host Colorado Friday, according to a report in the Omaha World-Herald. Paul, a senior, broke his foot during Tuesday's practice, and the injury will likely end his career, according to the report. He leads the team with 39 receptions and 516 yards.
