Chase Rome - DL - Cornhuskers

Nebraska head coach Bo Pelini confirmed that sophomore DT Chase Rome will be away from the team "for the foreseeable future" to deal with personal issues.

Beat writer Sean Callahan hints that Rome's departure may have been due to a lack of playing time. "His personal goals – and personal perception of where he should be on this football team – doesn’t match the team goals," Pelini said. Rome fell down the depth chart but had four tackles thus far in 2012, but even with his addition the Cornhuskers have given up 653 rushing yards this season.
