Irish Breakdown

Irish Breakdown starts today's show with discussion of a report that Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard may have injured his non-throwing shoulder in last week's loss to Northern Illinois. What could it mean for his availability this weekend at Purdue? Could we see Steve Angeli this week? We also have thoughts on both the offense and defense after last week's loss and what needs to happen going forward. We hear Irish head coach Marcus Freeman's thoughts on his interior defensive line and how NIU had success running the ball against Notre Dame. We also take a look at some offensive plays on the Whiteboard.
