The offense, and specifically the passing game, is getting on the right track for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the 2026 Blue-Gold spring game.

Reserve quarterback Blake Hebert found wide receiver Elijah Burress from about 8 yards out, and Burress had an athletic toe-tap catch for the touchdown.

Notre Dame's passing game looked shaky early, but it has improved as this spring game has gone on.
