Nebraska Reportedly Bracing for Dylan Raiola to Explore Transfer Portal

Matt Rhule says he has no knowledge of Raiola’s plans, following his brother’s decommitment.

Overview

  • CBSSports.com reported Nebraska is preparing for the possibility that starting quarterback Dylan Raiola will test the portal this offseason.
  • Rhule told reporters he had not seen the report and would not discuss a player’s private decisions, stressing he does not know Raiola’s intentions.
  • Raiola has been out since Nov. 1 with a season-ending broken fibula, with reports indicating the injury should not prevent a 2026 return to play.
  • Raiola earned about $3.5 million this season, and reporting says Nebraska plans to increase NIL and revenue-share outlays to keep key players.
  • The portal opens Jan. 2, with media speculation pointing to Miami, Penn State and Arizona State as potential suitors, while freshman TJ Lateef has posted efficient numbers in Raiola’s absence.
