Notre Dame’s tight end production has fallen off mightily the past few seasons. If the first two games are any inclination, 2016 won’t be much better.
For over the past 10-15 years Notre Dame has been known as “Tight End U”. They’ve produced some of college football’s premier tight ends that have gone on to make a name for themselves in the NFL. From Anthony Fasano to John Carlson, from Kyle Rudolph to Tyler Eifert, the Irish have had loads of success developing tight ends.
But in the past two seasons the tight end has really been a none factor in the Irish offense, and 2016 is no different.
