Former Wisconsin cornerback Nyzier Fourqurean signed with the Los Angeles Rams after the 2026 NFL draft, turning a lost 2025 season into a fresh NFL opportunity after the NCAA ruled him ineligible for the 2025 college campaign.
Fourqurean arrived in Madison with the profile the Badgers covet on the edge, a big, physical corner who plays through contact, but he never got the chance to put that on film last fall. Wisconsin’s secondary leaned on its remaining options while Fourqurean worked through the eligibility process, leaving his Badgers career defined as much by the ruling as by what he showed when he could compete.
He still found a way to put himself back on the radar. Fourqurean delivered a strong performance at Wisconsin’s pro day, using the workout setting to showcase the traits that fit NFL coverage schemes: size, physicality, and the ability to handle man-to-man matchups. With no 2025 game tape to lean on, that pro day showing carried extra weight as he tried to convince teams he belonged in a camp.
Ny’s time to shine 🤩

Fourqurean now heads to Los Angeles with a chance to earn his role the hard way, starting with the transition to the Rams’ playbook and the daily grind of competing against NFL wideouts. Wisconsin fans will watch for his next milestone: making a roster push once Rams offseason work ramps up.
