Another Notre Dame football starter out against Central Michigan
We knew earlier in the week that Notre Dame football would be without linebacker JD Bertrand.
What we didn’t know was Mitchell Evans would join the Irish captain on the unavailable list against Central Michigan. Luckily for Notre Dame, Holden Staes had a mini-breakout against NC State.
What’s interesting is when this week’s depth chart was release, Evans was tight end No. 1, but the Irish now look to Staes along with Davis Sherwood, who also scored a touchdown last week, to replace him.
As for Bertrand, Drayk Bowen is listed behind him, and it would be the first start for the true freshman.
