Notre Dame Football: Running Back Jafar Armstrong OUT For Stanford Game With Knee Injury

According to a report from Irish Illustrated’s Tim Prister, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will be without running back Jafar Armstrong for their upcoming game against the Stanford Cardinal.

Armstrong has a knee infection that must have developed some time this week, as he is coming off of his best performance of the season against Wake Forest. In that game, Jafar had 98 yards rushing on 8 carries with 2 touchdowns. He leads the team in touchdown with 5 on the season.

This will probably mean that Dexter Williams will see a bigger role against Stanford than what most of us thought he would have coming off of the unofficial suspension.
