Micah Gilbert is pushing for Notre Dame’s starting boundary job
Micah Gilbert enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-2, 205-pound junior who has climbed into the front of Notre Dame’s boundary receiver competition, and that matters because the Irish staff has repeatedly singled out his explosiveness and physicality.
