Running back became a position of need for the Irish in 2019 after the room decreased by two this winter.

Only three recruited running backs are going through spring practice — senior Dexter Williams, junior Tony Jones Jr. and freshman Jahmir Smith — with sophomore wide receiver Jafar Armstrong cross-training at the position as well. Freshman C’Bo Flemister will join the group this fall.

Depending on if the dismissed players return, Notre Dame will likely look to add two more running backs this class with Williams graduating and Jones entering his senior year in 2019.

The Irish expanded the board at running back this evening. Per his Twitter, Kenan Christon of San Diego Madison announced he has picked up an offer from Notre Dame.

The 5-10, 175-pounder also holds offers from Stanford, USC, UCLA, Utah, Washington State, Nebraska, Colorado and Boston College, among others.

According to MaxPreps, Christon rushed for 1,233 yards and 16 touchdowns in nine games this past season.

Stay tuned to Blue & Gold Illustrated for more information on Christon and his thoughts on the Irish offer.
