LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -Nebraska quarterback Zac Lee showed up for the start of preseason practice with a repaired right elbow and a new attitude.
Lee missed all of spring practice to recover from surgery, and while he was gone fans and media became enamored with his backups, Cody Green and Taylor Martinez.
Now Lee finds himself in a battle to keep his job.
Tight end Mike McNeill says Lee seems to have a “chip on his shoulder” and is driven to prove he should be the starter again. Lee says he is motivated and confident.
Offensive coordinator Shawn Watson said after Saturday’s practice that the competition among the three is “dead even.”
