Jordan Faison walked onto Notre Dame's roster a year ago and this fall earned a starting spot at wide receiver as well as being the team's primary punt returner.
Not even a half into the 2024 season though, Faison went down with an injury.
Following Notre Dame's 23-13 win at Texas A&M, Marcus Freeman gave detail of what happened to Faison and what the player himself told his coach about his injury.

"I don’t know much," Freeman said of Faison's injury, "He said it was an ankle. He said like ‘Coach, I’m good. I’m done for this game but I’m good’.
"I have confidence he’ll be back. I don’t know what the timetable is."
Faison had two catches for 12 yards in the victory.
