Aneyas Williams has Big Shoes to Fill at Notre Dame
Notre Dame running back Aneyas Williams is slated for a significant workload following the departure of Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price. Notre Dame's No. 1 and No. 2 running backs were selected in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, leaving an important hole to fill in the Irish offense. Williams, who has flashed in limited action, is a prime breakout candidate at the RB spot this season. The 20-year-old rising junior has tallied 58 rushing attempts for 443 yards and caught 20 passes for 212 yards across 27 career games. He also added seven total touchdowns. The sample size is small, but he's made a solid impact when called upon behind two stud ball carriers. While sophomore Kedren Young and freshman Javion Osborne will likely play a part in the backfield, Williams is in the driver's seat to handle the most touches for the National Championship hopefuls.
