Marcus Freeman met with the media on Monday as Notre Dame prepares to take on the Stanford Cardinal on Saturday. More and more — especially this season — the Monday presser is more about a rundown of who’s healthy and who isn’t.
The presser makes the worst news official — defensive end Boubacar Traore is out for the season with a torn ACL. Traore is currently Notre Dame’s sack leader and was well on his way to stardom this season, but the turf monster had other ideas.
We add Traore to the “lost for the season” list along with Charles Jagusah, Jordan Botelho, Ashton Craig, Kahanu Kia, Taebron Bennie-Powell, Styles Prescod, Chance Tucker, and Gi’Bran Payne.
