Nebraska football: Scott Frost reveals Decoldest Crawford will miss "extended" time with knee injury

Nebraska wide receiver Decoldest Crawford suffered a knee injury during training camp last week. He will be out for an “extended” period of time, according to head coach Scott Frost, via Nebraska beat writer Sean Callahan on Twitter.

Crawford, who was set to begin his true freshman season with the Cornhuskers this fall, was a three-star prospect out of Green Oakes High School (La.) who ranked as the No. 63 receiver in the country and the No. 19 player in Louisiana, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Formerly, Crawford was a LSU commit, but decided to commit to Scott Frost and the Cornhuskers following the departure of former head coach Ed Orgeron.
