For starters, Braden Lenzy comes to mind as a guy who could get 5 to 7 touches a game within the offense. Lenzy boasted on twitter that he recently posted a 4.40 time in the 40-yard dash:

Lenzy has yet to see the field for the Irish in a regular game, but his speed could allow him the opportunity to see playing time and stretch the field in jet sweeps and deep passes. While I wouldn’t count on Lenzy to be a guy to lead Notre Dame in receiving, it would be great to see him find his niche on the field in 2019.
