Eli Raridon is Notre Dame’s big-play tight end with receiver-like yards after catch
In the 2025 season, Raridon broke out with 32 catches for 482 yards for Notre Dame, averaging 15.1 yards per reception and finishing third on the team in catches and receiving yards[3][4]. His biggest differentiators are his rare TE size-speed blend, downfield seam threat, and ability to turn catches into chunk gains, but his profile also reflects a history of overcoming knee injuries in 2022 and 2023 and he still has to sharpen consistency as a red-zone finisher since he had 0 touchdowns in 2025[3][13][14].
