Lincoln native Trey Foster was one of three tight ends who held down the position in the Husker offense each of the past three seasons. Foster provided the Huskers with a dependable player who saw extensive action in short-yardage situations, while also providing a receiving threat. 

Foster walked on to the program, but was rewarded for his efforts with a scholarship prior to his junior season. Foster was joined on the NU roster by his younger brother, Jerald, an offensive guard. Trey Foster earned his degree in marketing in December.

2016 (Senior)
Foster played in all 13 games, with a pair of starts. He caught a six-yard touchdown pass against Illinois for his second career touchdown. The touchdown extended Nebraska's fourth-quarter lead to eight poins in the final five minutes. 

2015 (Junior)
Foster played in 10 games at tight end, including each of the final eight games of the season. Foster suffered an ankle injury in fall camp that slowed him for much of the first half of the year and caused him to miss three games.

2014 (Sophomore)
Foster saw action in eight games, making his first career start against Northwestern. He had a six-yard reception against the Wildcats. 

2013 (Redshirt Freshman)
Foster played in six games in 2013, primarily in short-yardage situations. He had one catch for nine yards at Purdue.

From his defensive end position, Foster recorded 59 tackles, 3.5 sacks and three fumble recoveries.

Foster earned seventh-place finishes in both the shot put and discus at the 2012 Nebraska state track and field meet.
