## Resource

Notre Dame’s 2026 class just got a game-changer with five-star safety Joey OBrien, a long-armed, elite-range athlete originally recruited at cornerback but thriving in the safety role. His speed, quickness, and instinct for reading quarterbacks make him a turnover threat. Though he missed spring practice with a leg injury requiring surgery, he’s expected back for fall camp—and his physicality against the run will be key to his early impact. With strong coverage skills already in place, OBrien is poised to crack the two-deep as a freshman, filling a critical gap left by departing players. His path to success hinges on staying healthy and proving his five-star potential—especially in deep zones and man coverage.
