Notre Dame RB Chris Tyree primed for a breakout season

The former #1 all-purpose back and #70 player nationally on 247 Sports, Chris Tyree, is now at the top of the depth chart in South Bend. After an outstanding freshman season in 2020, the Irish tailback was hampered by a turf toe injury last year. Now is the time for Tyree to become the running back fans have been waiting to see. Notre Dame returns one of the best offensive lines in the country, and Chris Tyree will have many opportunities.
