Corey Brown Sees 'Healthy Competition' Brewing in Nebraska's Defensive Tackle Room

Nebraska defensive line coach Corey Brown said the interior of the Huskers’ defensive front is still in flux, driven by what he described as “healthy competition” among defensive tackles. Speaking Tuesday after practice, Brown said he’s looking for consistency every day and has seen some players separate during fall camp, though he hasn’t finalized the depth chart. With the Big Ten’s physical demands, he emphasized that rotating multiple interior tackles in 2026 will be essential, while avoiding a “drop-off” in detail and execution. Among those vying for rotation snaps are Dylan Berymon, signed in February, and Tyson Terry, back from a knee injury.
