Micah Gilbert brings size, early scoring touch, and upside to Notre Dame’s passing game
Gilbert flashed as a freshman in 2025, catching 9 passes for 93 yards and a touchdown in 10 games, including his first career catch and score in the opener at Miami. At 6-2 and 205 pounds, he offers a bigger-bodied target with room to grow, but the key question is availability: reports note he dealt with a hand injury in spring and had a limited 2025 workload, so his next step is proving he can stay on the field and turn early red-zone value into consistent production.
