Jason Onye is a stout, late-blooming interior disruptor for Notre Dame
Onye enters 2026 as a useful Notre Dame DL because he combines rare size and power with a clear upward trend in production: in 2025 he logged 26 tackles and 1.5 sacks while showing his best football late in the season, and scouting-style metrics noted strong run defense and improving pressure impact. He stands out for his leverage, toughness, and ability to hold the point inside, plus the fact that coaches and media have highlighted a spring-to-fall leap in technique and confidence. He fits teams needing a physical, experienced interior defender who can eat blocks and create occasional backfield disruption.
