Notre Dame Football Roster in 2023
The 2023 Notre Dame football roster was formally unveiled this week as the Fighting Irish began autumn practice. Sam Hartman, a Wake Forest transfer, is the star of the Irish roster, which also features probable All-Americans Joe Alt and Blake Fisher on the offensive line. The Irish ground attack will be led by Audric Estime, and the wide receiving corps is highlighted by Jayden Thomas, Tobias Merriweather, and a bright group of freshmen.
In the off-season, the Irish made a number of defensive roster additions, including DE Javonte Jean-Baptiste, safety Antonio Carter, and Nickelback Thomas Harper. They join a core of linebackers led by veteran Marist Liufau, JD Bertrand, and Jack Kiser, as well as star sophomore cornerback Benjamin Morrsion. The defense now boasts youthful talent set to make a splash in 2023, like linebacker Jaylen Sneed, thanks to two successively successful recruiting classes.
