- What Does The Notre Dame Offensive Line Have To Do?
Notre Dame's offensive line carries a huge responsibility in 2026, both in replacing the production lost at running back and in giving CJ Carr the protection he needs to become an elite quarterback. We break down what the Irish must improve up front, from stronger pass protection and more consistent physicality to better communication against twists and stunts, while also examining the importance of health and depth.
