Greg Flammang Breaks Down Notre Dame’s Opening Practices of Training Camp

Notre Dame training camp is underway, and the early practices are already providing clues about CJ Carr’s development, the Fighting Irish’s biggest position battles, breakout candidates and a loaded group of young players pushing for bigger roles in 2026. Tyler Wojciak is joined by Irish Sports Daily’s Greg Flammang to discuss the biggest early headline from camp, what looks different about Carr, Teddy Jarrard’s push at backup quarterback, Aneyas Williams and Jonaz Walton in the backfield, Notre Dame’s suddenly deep wide receiver room, the offensive line competition, and then everything happening on defense — including Armel Mukam’s rise at defensive tackle, Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa’s return, Jayden Sanders, Dallas Golden, Christian Gray and the battles taking shape in the secondary.
