Nebraska selects trio of veteran players to represent program during Big Ten Media Days

Three veteran Nebraska football players, including two stalwarts from a defense with ample returning experience, will represent the program next week during Big Ten Media Days in Indianapolis.

Junior tight end Austin Allen, the team's second-leading receiver in 2020, will represent the offense, while seniors Ben Stille (22-game starter) and Deontai Williams (nine) will represent the defense.

The media-oriented event, canceled last year due to COVID-19, will be Thursday and Friday at Lucas Oil Stadium.

The gathering is typically held in Chicago, just a short drive from the conference’s headquarters in Rosemont, Illinois, but changed locations due to coronavirus restrictions still in place in Chicago.
