Notre Dame Football: Running back situation heading into Week 2

If you made a list of players that Notre Dame could not afford to lose on the offensive side of the ball, Jafar Armstrong would be near the top. The explosiveness he has provided in the Notre Dame backfield has been immense and adds an entire new dimension to the offense.

However, he is shelved for anywhere from 3-5 weeks with a groin injury, so where does Brian Kelly turn to at the running back position?

The answer is most likely a running back committee, as we saw against Louisville after Armstrong went down.
