ALL-TIME LEADERS IN RECEIVING YARDS FOR NEBRASKA FOOTBALL
NUMBER 4 – NATE SWIFT (2,476)
HUSKER WIDE RECEIVER FROM 2005-2008
Nate Swift was another wide receiver who played for the Huskers during their offensive heavy seasons in the mid to late 2000s. Swift, a Minnesota native, joined Nebraska in 2005 and played all four years in Lincoln.
He ended his Nebraska tenure with 166 receptions for 2,476 yards and 22 touchdowns. His best year easily came as a senior in 2008 when he hauled in 63 catches for 941 yards and ten touchdowns.
Swift spent a brief period of time in the NFL, but no matter what, Husker fans will always remember him for his efforts during his college days. He’s still fourth all-time in receiving yards for Nebraska football.
