Year three of the Matt Rhule era will begin in Las Vegas next month.

The 2025 Big Ten Football Media Days will be July 22-24. Each of the 18 teams will be represented by three players and their head coach at the event.

Rhule will be joined by Nebraska offensive lineman Henry Lutovsky, quarterback Dylan Raiola and safety Deshon Singleton.

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 2022 and 2023.

Singleton started all 13 games last season at safety as Nebraska ranked in the top 20 nationally in total defense (317.9 ypg, 18th) and scoring defense (19.5 ppg 17th). 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. 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.
