Notre Dame barely got past Boston College on Saturday night and they’re going to have to do much better when they face No. 11 Stanford this week.
Unfortunately, the Fighting Irish will be without one of their top players on defense. Cornerback KeiVarae Russell will miss the remainder of the season after suffering an injury against Boston College.
Head coach Brian Kelly confirmed Russell suffered a fractured tibia and will not be able to return.
Broken tibia for KeiVarae Russell. Out for the year. Will have surgery to insert a rod to stabilize the injury

This is a huge loss for No.
