SeatGeek is the Official Ticket Marketplace of the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and this season the platform is deepening its connection to fans through a Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) partnership with defensive back Ceyair Wright. 

Known for his athleticism, coverage skills, and Hollywood roots, Wright brings star power to Nebraska’s secondary while helping fans get closer to the action on game day.

With the code CEYAIR10, Husker fans can save 10% off up to $25 on SeatGeek purchases throughout the 2025 season. It’s a win-win: more affordable tickets to Memorial Stadium and a stronger connection to one of Nebraska’s newest playmakers.

From Los Angeles to Lincoln

Ceyair Wright’s journey to Nebraska is unlike most college athletes. A native of Los Angeles, he became a national name not only for his football talent but also for his acting career. Wright starred as LeBron James’ son in Space Jam: A New Legacy, giving him early exposure on a global stage.

But beyond Hollywood, Wright was making his mark on the football field. At Loyola High School in Los Angeles, he was a standout defensive back, using his elite speed and instincts to lock down some of the top receivers in California. Ranked as a four-star prospect in the 2021 class, he fielded offers from programs across the country before beginning his college career.

In 2024, Wright transferred to Nebraska, bringing his athleticism and flair to a program eager to rebuild its defensive identity. His decision to join the Cornhuskers symbolized a fresh start and an opportunity to make an impact in the Big Ten.

Making His Mark in the Big Ten

Wright wasted little time getting on the field in Lincoln. His length, speed, and fluid coverage skills quickly earned the trust of the coaching staff. In his first season with the Huskers, he saw action in multiple Big Ten matchups, showing flashes of the shutdown ability that made him such a coveted recruit.

One of his early highlights came against Wisconsin, when he broke up two key passes and recorded six tackles in a gritty defensive battle. His ability to stay stride-for-stride with bigger receivers and his confidence in one-on-one coverage brought new energy to Nebraska’s secondary.

As he heads into the 2025 season, Wright is expected to play a major role in the Huskers’ defense. Coaches praise his leadership in the film room and his steady improvement in practice, noting that his ceiling is still sky-high. 

Analysts believe he could emerge as one of the Big Ten’s most reliable corners, capable of matching up against the conference’s toughest passing attacks.

Spotlight On and Off the Field

What makes Ceyair Wright a compelling NIL partner isn’t just his athletic ability. It’s the combination of talent and personality that makes him stand out. Teammates describe him as confident but grounded, someone who brings energy to the locker room and focus to the field. 

His ability to balance the demands of athletics with his previous success in acting speaks to his discipline and work ethic.

Off the field, Wright has embraced the opportunity to represent Nebraska on a national stage. He’s leaned into community engagement in Lincoln, attending youth sports camps and connecting with fans eager to learn more about the newcomer with California roots. 

His approachable demeanor and charisma make him a natural ambassador for SeatGeek, which thrives on building authentic connections between athletes and supporters.
