Notre Dame cornerback Julian Love is likely a player we’ll be discussing quite a bit as a possible 2019 NFL Draft selection of the Pittsburgh Steelers for the next several weeks as he’s already been linked to the team in a few mock drafts. That will likely continue to happen the next several weeks following Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert being at the Notre Dame pro day. With our draft profile of Love already posted on the site, a few readers are wanting to see more about the plays he made during his college career at Notre Dame.
In an effort to provide you as much information as possible when it comes to several top players in the 2019 draft class, I am currently putting together as many contextualization posts as I can between now and the end of April and especially when it comes to players who the Steelers might select in the various rounds. In this post, we’ll contextualize the defensive plays made by Love during his college career and specifically those that included him registering ether a tackle for loss, a sack, a pass defensed, a hurry, an interception, or a forced fumble.
Love registered 39 total pass breakups in the 38 games that he played in at Notre Dame dating back to 2016 and 6 total tackles that resulted in lost yardage. He also registered 5 interceptions, 1 forced fumble and 1 quarterback hurry. I was able to track down all of these 53 plays that Love made and they are contextualized for you in the table below and in order. Each play is linked to a video of it on Youtube.
