Summary
Notre Dame just got a massive defensive tackle upgrade with the transfer of Tionne Gray from Oregon, a 6-foot-5, 330-pound force poised to anchor their championship-caliber run defense. After redshirting in 2024 and playing in 13 games last season, Gray brings playoff experience and elite run-stopping ability — traits that perfectly fit the Irish’s scheme. Though still developing his pass-rushing game, his athleticism and disruptive potential make him a top contender for the starting lineup. With projections of 20-25 tackles and multiple tackles for loss, Gray could be the key to elevating Notre Dame’s defense even further in 2026.
