Ambrose Wooden brought ball skills and toughness to Notre Dame’s secondary
A former wide receiver turned cornerback, Ambrose Wooden stood out for his instincts, playmaking and willingness to compete; in the 2005 season, he started all 12 games for Notre Dame, finished with 74 tackles, 2 interceptions and 5 pass breakups, and even returned one pick 41 yards. Reports also describe him as one of the team’s most improved players, with a high football IQ and the versatility that comes from playing both sides of the ball. He’s the kind of defensive back who fits a team that values physicality, adaptability and a DB who can hunt the football.
