Notre Dame offensive lineman Billy Schrauth has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft. 

The 2025 Irish captain will end his time at Notre Dame with 32 career games played and was a key part in the rise of the program over the last two seasons. 

Schrauth played in just seven games in 2025 as a knee injury against USC sidelined him, but he went out with a bang as the game against the Trojans may have been his best in the blue and gold. 

Despite missing the last month of the year, Schrauth was still named an AFCA Second-Team All-American as he helped the Irish run for 5.7 yards per carry in 2025. 

The Wisconsin native was also Marcus Freeman's first commitment after being named head coach in 2021, as Schrauth committed hours after Freeman’s introductory press conference.
