Henry Lutovsky, DeShon Singleton and Dylan Raiola will represent the Husker football program at Big Ten Media Days in Las Vegas next month. The trio will join Head Coach Matt Rhule in Las Vegas on July 22, as Nebraska will be one of six schools on the first day of the three-day event.

Lutovsky is one of the veterans on the Husker offense, as the Crawfordsville, Iowa, native is one of five returning starters back in 2025. Last season, Lutovsky started 11 games at right guard, as Nebraska went 7-6 and won the Pinstripe Bowl over Boston College. Lutovsky has played in 38 career games at Nebraska, including every game in both 2022 and 2023.

Singleton started all 13 games at safety, as Nebraska ranked in the top 20 nationally in both total defense (317.9 ypg, 18th) and scoring defense (19.5 ppg 17th) a year ago. The Greenburg, La., product was second on the team with 71 tackles, including 45 solo stops, along with three pass breakups. He had a career-high 10 tackles against eventual national champion Ohio State. Singleton has 30 career appearances, including 18 starts at Nebraska, as he missed the second half of the 2023 season with a knee injury.

Raiola put together a record-setting freshman year, as he guided the Huskers to their first bowl appearance since 2016. Raiola was a semifinalist for the Sean Alexander Freshman of the Year, as he set school freshman marks in passing yards (2,819) and completion percentage (67.1). He led all freshmen nationally in completion percentage and was third in yards. On the season, he completed 275-of-410 passes for 13 touchdowns. He posted career highs in both yards (297) and passing touchdowns (three) against Illinois. Raiola capped his freshman year by becoming the first true freshman to lead Nebraska to a bowl victory, as he completed 22-of-30 passes for 224 yards and a TD in the 20-15 win over the Eagles.
