Marcus Freeman updates injuries to Jordan Botelho, Ashton Craig, Billy Schrauth and more

On Monday, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman had bad news about all of the players that suffered injuries against Purdue.

Defensive lineman Jordan Botelho and offensive lineman Ashton Craig are lost for the year due to knee injuries. It was reported earlier that Botelho most likely would be out for the remainder of the season, which unfortunately turned out to be correct.

There was some good injury news as well, as wide receiver Jordan Faison will be full go this weekend. Defensive lineman Joshua Burnham is questionable, and offensive lineman billy schrauth , the third player hurt against the Boilermakers, is expected to miss a few weeks.

Notre Dame offensive lineman Ashton Craig participates in a drill during a Notre Dame football practice at Irish Athletic Center on Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024, in South Bend.

It wasn’t the news we wanted to hear, but it was somewhat expected. The Irish have had to battle on the field this year, along with in the training room.
