Jordan Faison was one of the top two-sport athletes in the country, let alone at Notre Dame. He was, rather than is, because as of Friday, the wide receiver/lacrosse player is sticking to football.
Faison led the Fighting Irish in both receptions (49) and receiving yards (640) in 2025 and scored four touchdowns. He initially joined the football team as a walk-on in 2023 and was thrust into action because of injuries late in the season, earning Sun Bowl MVP honors after a 115-yard performance against Oregon State. The 5-foot-10, 183-pound Faison had 30 receptions in 2024.
