This is the second time Payne has entered the portal, entering and withdrawing back in December.

Through his first two seasons with the Cornhuskers, Payne logged 40 tackles and 3.0 sacks. He joined Scott Frosts’ Nebraska program as a three-star JUCO transfer in 2020.
After redshirting his first season in Lincoln, Nixon saw time in his first game for the Huskers this past season.
In just one game appearance, Nixon logged one reception for five yards. The reserve wideout also joined the program as a three-star recruit in the 2020 class.
Nebraska put together yet another disappointing year in 2021, finishing the season with six straight losses and a 3-9 overall record.
