Coach Ed Lamb on Hobbs Nyberg being a punt returner
“I have been super grateful for the opportunity that football coaches even gave me to be on the team,” Nyberg said. “I am trying to have as much fun as I possibly can and work my hardest and have a fun football career. At the end of the day, I have made really good friends and have a football brotherhood that will last forever. But right now I am just living a dream. I feel blessed just to be on the team.”
