Nebraska OLB JoJo Domann said on his podcast that he underwent surgery to repair a ruptured tendon in a finger on his left hand. Domann suffered the injury against Purdue and played with it in that game and against Ohio State. Look for Isaac Gifford to take over his spot.

As Nebraska coach Scott Frost noted following the game vs. Ohio State, this isn’t an opt-out situation for the 6-foot-1, 230-pound Domann. Frost indicated Domann had played through an injury and had a decision to make about the final 2 games. Now, we know that decision.
Nebraska OLB JoJo Domann is also playing hurt, Scott Frost says, and faced a decision about playing today. He will have a choice, too, about the final two games — but it won’t be an opt-out situation.

Domann amassed 131 solo tackles, 5.5 sacks, 16 pass deflections, nine forced fumbles, and two interceptions during his six seasons with the Cornhuskers.
Nebraska football is 3-7 overall, seventh place in the B1G West, and will return to action on Nov. 20 at Wisconsin.
