Nebraska football still pushing for top ranked class of 2027 tight end Ahmad Hudson
Hudson is the No. 17 overall player in the 2027 class, the fourth overall player in the state of Louisiana, and the top tight end in the class per Rivals rankings. As a sophomore, he caught 41 passes for 718 yards and six touchdowns.
He's also an accomplished basketball player, averaging 21 points and 14 rebounds per game last season. The Huskers first offered him a scholarship on January 30, and he visited Lincoln on June 6 for the Battle of the Boneyard tournament.
It will certainly be interesting to see how this recruitment progresses. He is a dynamic athlete, standing at 6-foot-8 and weighing 230 pounds. He would bring an immediate playmaker to the Nebraska offense and give future quarterbacks a dynamic target.

Ex-Steelers FS Minkah Fitzpatrick already pushing for new deal with Dolphins
It's been less than a month since the Steelers traded Minkah Fitzpatrick to Miami — but he's allegedly looking for a new deal with the Dolphins. On Saturday, Dolphins insider Omar Kelly reported that Fitzpatrick, who's out of guaranteed money on his current contract, switched agents to Drew Rosenhaus — in hopes of getting a new deal. Kelly also noted that Rosenhaus represents Dolphins DT Zach Sieler, who's also looking for a reworked contract in the near future.
