Listed measurements: 6-foot-1, 228 pounds.
2021-22 year, eligibility: Though entering his third season at Notre Dame, otherwise known as being a junior, Bertrand has four full seasons of eligibility remaining thanks to the universal pandemic eligibility waiver last year.
Depth Chart: Bertrand has yet to take a competitive defensive snap, making it unlikely he cracks the two-deep at Mike (middle) linebacker with fifth-year Drew White and senior Bo Bauer firmly entrenched in a time-share.
Recruiting: A consensus four-star prospect, Bertrand de-committed from Georgia just a few months before his cycle’s decision date, took two unofficial visits to Notre Dame and signed with the Irish despite lacking a promise of a scholarship.
