Wide receiver Braden Lenzy was not dressed for practice and did not participate in any drills during the open session. According to a Notre Dame spokesperson he was out for "Normal fall camp bumps and bruises." Linebacker Drew White was also not at the practice during the open session. Beyond the previous comment we were instructed to wait until Brian Kelly's press conference tomorrow evening to ask him about any injuries.
Defensive end Jordan Botelho was wearing #12 and is now listed as #12 on the official Notre Dame roster.
For much of the remainder of practice we only saw special teams. Here are some notes.
*** Reps were split between returner Jonathan Doerer and true freshman Josh Bryan.
*** These two have been splitting reps each time we have seen the FG units putting in work.
*** They were both very accurate close up but as they moved back beyond 45 yards Doerer was less accurate than Bryan.
*** Bryan's kicks were always dead center while Doerer had the propensity to miss right. It was clear that Doerer had the stronger leg but Bryan appears to be much more accurate, at least he has been when we've seen them during open practices.
