Where are they going?
After seven rounds, the NFL Draft is officially over. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish had a solid showing in this year’s draft with 6 players having their name called.
- Benjamin Morrison CB — Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Xavier Watts S — Atlanta Falcons
- Jack Kiser LB — Jacksonville Jaguars
- Rylie Mills DT — Seattle Seahawks
- Mitchell Evans TE — Carolina Panthers
- Riley Leonard QB — Indianapolis Colts
There were a handful of Notre Dame players that were not selected in the draft, and now they go into the undrafted free agent market. In a lot of ways, the UDFA route has better opportunities than being a 7th round draft choice.
Notre Dame players that will now be UDFA’s:
- Devyn Ford RB
- Jayden Harrison WR
- Rod Heard DB
- Max Hurleman ATH
- Mitch Jeter K
- Kris Mitchell WR
- RJ Oben DE
Over the course of the next few days, we will be updating this page with all of the Notre Dame UDFA signings.
