The Notre Dame football team will depend on plenty of new faces in the 2025 season, but none may make a bigger impact than transfer wide receiver Malachi Fields.
Fields, a veteran wideout who came to South Bend from Virginia over the winter, is a bit of an x-factor for Notre Dame this fall. If Marcus Freeman makes the right call at quarterback and the Irish are a little more wide open in Mike Denbrock's second season, Fields stands a chance to put up some huge numbers.
