5 Notre Dame football players with the most to prove in 2021
No. 4: Braden Lenzy
One of the key question marks on this roster heading into the summer is the wide receiver spot, where the Irish will look to replace their top two options from a year ago. Both Ben Skowronek and Javon McKinley have since gone on to the NFL, leaving plenty of starting jobs available at the X, W, or Z positions.
One player who should step up and grab a lead role this offseason is Braden Lenzy, who has all the talent in the world but has yet to stay healthy long enough to prove his worth. This is definitely a prove-it season for Lenzy, as there is a solid cast of young players looking to come in and establish this position group as a strength.
In Lenzy, the Irish have a guy who can really take the lid off a defense, and someone who has shown that he can make the big play when he gets the ball in his hands. He looks healthy, stronger, and ready to take on a lead role within this offense, which would be just what Tommy Rees and company needs.
