The Huskers recently named their captains for the 2020-2021 season and a former walk on was honored with this position. His name is Kade Warner. Warner may sound very familiar. You may be brought back to the Greatest Show on Turf and the 2000 Super Bowl where Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner absolutely dominated the passing game in the NFL. Kade just so happens to be his son.
Kade attended Desert Mountain High School where he dominated the gridiron. According to MaxPreps, he accumulated nearly 3,000 reception yards with 39 total touchdowns in high school.
