Kade

Warner

Warner (6'1/210) began his Nebraska career as a walk-on, but he eventually earned a scholarship ahead of the 2020 season. Also named a team captain, he made four starts this past fall and caught five passes for 40 yards. Warner, the son of Super Bowl champion QB Kurt Warner, will have up to three seasons of eligibility remaining at Kansas State.

Warner (6'1/210), a former walk-on, was placed on scholarship for the 2020 season and made four starts. He was also voted a captain and caught five passes for 40 yards. The son of legendary NFL QB Kurt Warner, Kade made 12 starts for Nebraska during the 2018-19 seasons as well. He’ll look for a better opportunity as a grad transfer.

Warner (6'1/210) was an eight-game starter in 2018, catching 17 passes for 98 yards last fall. While Nebraska has not yet publicly divulged the injury concern which had held him down for the first few weeks of the current campaign, ESPN’s Chris Fowler passed along during Saturday’s contest that the former walk-on had been mending up from a fractured foot. He did not end up catching a pass against the Buckeyes, but will help pad out the Huskers’ depth moving forward.

Nebraska HC Scott Frost said earlier in the week that Warner (6'1/210), who has yet to play in a game this season, would be back from his undisclosed injury. The redshirt sophomore’s return won’t occur Saturday night however, with Nebraska’s next game being its Sept. 21 Big Ten opener at Illinois.

Warner (6'1/210) has yet to appear in a game this season after making eight starts in 2018. The redshirt sophomore finished last season with 17 catches for 95 yards, and he was expected to be a more integral part of the Nebraska passing attack this fall. But those plans are on hold due to the injury that he’s working his way back from.

Warner (6'1/210) is not dressed out in pads in advance of Saturday’s season-opener. This doesn’t figure to hurt the Huskers too much, as the redshirt sophomore was not an expected starter, more a rotational cog. We’ll update his status over the coming week as information arises.

Warner (6'1/210), who made eight starts as a redshirt freshman, is one of three offensive players who did not take part in Monday’s session, with RB Wan’Dale Robinson and TE Chris Hickman being the others. As a redshirt freshman he caught 17 passes for 95 yards and stands to be one of the team’s top targets in 2019.

Per the team’s updated depth chart, he’ll be starting over Mike Williams. Kade, the son of NFL legend Kurt Warner, was a two-star recruit who walked on at Nebraska in 2017. The 6-foot-2, 205-pounder is the all-time high school receptions leader in the state of Arizona.

A two-star recruit mulling preferred walk-on offers isn’t particularly noteworthy under most circumstances, but in this case, the two-star recruit has a very, very famous father. Kade is the son of NFL Hall of Famer to-be Kurt Warner. Warner the Younger will be taking a visit to Nebraska this coming weekend as he continues to sort through his options. Despite making 241 catches in his high school career, he did not receive an FBS offer during the 2017 cycle.

The son of NFL legend Kurt Warner, Kade has posted some eye-popping statistics in his own right. Indeed, the 6-foot-2, 205-pounder is the all-time high school receptions leader in the state of Arizona, having logged 241 catches during his career at Desert Mountain High. He also considered walking on at Arizona State before a visit to Nebraska swayed him over to the heartland.
