Notre Dame on Monday unveiled its latest depth chart for Saturday's game against Navy after head coach Marcus Freeman's press conference. Freeman shared key injury updates that are impacting the depth chart. And for a change, it was mostly encouraging news.
There's only one player listed as questionable this week, and that's a repeater from last week — kicker Mitch Jeter (right hip). Freshman safety Tae Johnson, who has yet to play a game for the Irish, remains sidelined with left foot injury.
Right guard Billy Schrauth (right ankle), out since suffering an injury Sept. 14 at Purdue, is back and will have a yet-to-be defined role this week, which could include being a spectator or a starter. The change is that he's no longer listed as questionable or probable.
Key backup defensive tackle Jason Onye has missed the last two games for "personal reasons" and was not listed on Monday's depth chart in the two-deeps.
TV start time for the matchup between the 12th-ranked Irish (6-1) and No. 24 Navy (6-0) Saturday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. is noon EDT on ABC.
Inside ND Sports continues to project ongoing snapshots of how the players are moving up and down the depth chart throughout the season.
