Jimmy Clausen (#7) will no longer have the services of Kyle Rudolph (#9) after he suffered a season ending shoulder injury during the Navy game
It’s not getting any easier for Notre Dame as TE Kyle Rudolph is reported to be out for the Irish’s final three games as a result of suffering a shoulder injury during the loss to Navy.
This is a big hit for the offense because of Rudolph’s pass protection ability and his great hands. He is Clausen’s go-to guy and it shows as Rudolph is the second leading receiver on the team with 33 receptions and 3 TDs.
The Irish are certainly going to miss Rudolph down the stretch. Weis’ job is already in jeopardy, the loss of his star TE is only making things a lot harder for the ole ball coach.
Up next for Notre Dame, top ranked Pitt.
