Former Nebraska wide receiver receives high praise from All-Pro tight end George Kittle
A Nebraska wide receiver is getting high praise from an All-Pro tight end. San Francisco 49ers star George Kittle was recently a guest on the podcast 'Bussin' with the Boys' and had a lot to say about former Husker Isaiah Neyor.
'He's a freak. He was running a route, and he got nine and a half yards in two strides. It was insane. We watched it ten times in the tight end room. We were like 'how is he doing this?'… At the bare minimum, he should make the practice squad. He's a freak.'
Neyor only spent one year with the Cornhuskers after spending his first four years with the Wyoming Cowboys and the Texas Longhorns. In his one year at Nebraska, he played in 12 games, recording 34 receptions for 455 yards and five touchdowns.
Neyor then planned to transfer for a third time to the Louisville Cardinals, but changed his mind shortly thereafter and committed to the draft. He would sign with the Niners as an NFL free agent.
