Notre Dame WR Michael Young Injures Shoulder, Could Miss Weeks

Notre Dame suffered its second potentially significant injury of the summer during Saturday’s open practice. Starting wide receiver, Michael Young went down with a shoulder injury and could miss several weeks according to Blue and Gold Illustrated. That would be bad news for a Notre Dame offense that’s spent the offseason trying to become more explosive.

According to the B&G report, Young may need surgery and could be out for several weeks. Several weeks isn’t catastrophic for the Notre Dame offense, but it certainly is far from ideal – especially if it puts Young’s status for Georgia in doubt given Cole Kmet’s uncertain timeline for his return from a broken collarbone.
