Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Texas native put together three impressive seasons at Notre Dame after tearing his Achilles in the spring of his freshman year.
Price played in 41 career games for Notre Dame and will finish with 1,692 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns. He also averaged 6.0 yards per tote during his three seasons.
In 2025, Price was named an All-American kick returner, tallying 450 kickoff return yards and two touchdowns, including the electric return against USC, his second against the Trojans in his career.
The 5-foot-11, 210-pounder will leave a year of eligibility on the table, but given his injury and degree in hand, the decision makes too much sense as some NFL teams have Price as the No. 2 back on the board.

“After much reflection, I have decided to declare for the NFL Draft. First, I want to thank God and my family for their love, sacrifice and belief in me throughout this journey. They make all of this possible. Notre Dame has truly been a blessing in my life. Choosing to be a student-athlete here for the past four years is something I will always be grateful for. Through every high and low, this place and its people consistently pushed me to be better, and for that I am forever thankful. To my teammates, this brotherhood is one that will last a lifetime. Competing alongside you has been an opportunity of a lifetime, and the memories we’ve created together will stay with me forever. As I step into the next chapter and pursue my dream of playing in the NFL, I carry with me the lessons, values and memories Notre Dame has given me. Blessing and Love Thee, |
