Alt and Fisher started on the offensive line for a Notre Dame offense that rushed for 2,457 yards and 25 touchdowns last season.

As a freshman, Morrison started nine games and totaled 33 tackles and a team-high six interceptions. He also registered four pass breakups. His six interceptions were the most for a Notre Dame defensive player since Manti Te’o had seven as a Heisman Trophy runner-up in 2012
