The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have a roster full of players, and we want to talk about them all. One Foot Down’s player profile series will, once again, take a look at every single one of them, and hopefully we all learn a little bit more about these guys, and Notre Dame’s chances for the upcoming 2021 season.

#34 Osita Ekwonu, DE

Osita Ekwonu came to Notre Dame as a pretty darn highly-rated prospect in the 2019 class. At 6’2” and 220 pounds out of Charlotte, North Carolina, Ekwonu was considered a 4-star inside linebacker juuuuuust toeing the edge of the top 200 prospects in the class (#212 nationally, #14 ILB, #5 NC according to 247sports composite ratings).
