Nebraska true freshman WR, former 4-star recruit, makes pretty TD catch during Huskers scrimmage
Nebraska wide receiver Janiran Bonner, a 4-star recruit from the Atlanta area, is looking to make a strong push for immediate playing time.
Considered a top-50 WR recruit by 247Sports, Bonner signed with the Huskers in February after initially pledging to play closer to home at Georgia Tech. He’ll look to provide a boost to an offense that ranked 5th in the B1G in passing yards and 6th in scoring.
During the team’s 2nd scrimmage of the preseason on Sunday, Bonner gave a glimpse of what he could potentially bring to the table for Nebraska. Take a look at the video below as he hauled in a nice catch for a touchdown while beating out his defender:

Nebraska is less than 2 weeks out from its season opener, an Aug. 27 B1G West Division matchup against Northwestern in Dublin, Ireland. The Huskers finished just 3-9 in 2021, with a 1-8 mark in conference play.
