Junior Nebraska safety Deontai Williams had shoulder surgery and is out "for the foreseeable future," head coach Scott Frost confirmed Monday.
Frost typically only acknowledges specific injury status when a player is going to miss the remainder of the season.
Williams was hurt in the first quarter against South Alabama. He was involved in multiple hard collisions and a couple of times looked to be favoring his left shoulder area before eventually leaving the game.
On special teams, Isaac Armstrong is now listed as the No. 1 placekicker and William Przystup the No. 2 in place of injured sophomore starter Barret Pickering (leg/hip).
