Notre Dame stay hot on recruiting trail, add 2026 LB, son of former NFL star

Football committed

It has become clear over the last few recruiting cycles that Notre Dame has targeted football family bloodlines.

The Irish have had multiple former, current and soon-to-be players whose fathers played in the NFL, and on Tuesday night added another one in 2026 linebacker Thomas Davis Jr.

The son of Thomas Davis, the former NFL linebacker for the Carolina Panthers, Los Angeles Chargers and Washington Football Team is one of the best prospects in the country, ranking as the No. 146 overall player according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Davis is the first defensive player for the Irish in the class, as he joins quarterback Noah Grubbs and wide receiver Dylan Faison in what looks to be another impressive collection of talent assembled by head coach Marcus Freeman.

Davis Jr. has an impressive offer list as well, as Clemson, Auburn, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State and a host of others were vying for his commitment as well.

Notre Dame football Head Coach Marcus Freeman arrives at the Marriott hotel ahead of the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl on Dec. 24, 2023.
