No Active Notre Dame Safety Named Justin Smith Found – Likely Mix-Up with NFL Legend
Search results point exclusively to retired NFL defensive end Justin Smith (Missouri Tigers, 2001 No. 4 overall pick), a 14-year pro with 87 career sacks, 884 tackles, and three Pro Bowls with the 49ers (2008-2014); no current Notre Dame Fighting Irish safety by that name appears in reliable sources, with zero 2025 season stats, rankings, or performance data available for a college player matching this profile.
