Betts also spent time on special teams last season, with 52 kick return yards for Nebraska.
There is no indication about what made Betts want to leave the Nebraska football program. The Huskers dealt with a coaching change this season after firing Frost. Mickey Joseph stepped in and led the team to a 4-8 record.
Nebraska recently added a player to its ranks from the transfer portal. Former Arizona State OL Ben Scott will be joining the team for the 2023 season.
Stay tuned for more updates about where Betts is headed next.
