Notre Dame LT Charles Jagusah (pec) out for season
Notre Dames Charles Jagusah stretches during practice at the SAC on Dec. 26, 2023, as they prepare for the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl against Oregon State. Notre Dame offensive tackle Charles Jagusah will miss the entire upcoming season after tearing his right pectoralis muscle in preseason camp, the school announced Monday.
Jagusah had been expected to start at left tackle in place of the departed Joe Alt but instead will undergo surgery to repair the injury that occurred Saturday.
Alt's decision to opt out of December's Sun Bowl to prepare for the NFL Draft paved the way for Jagusah's first career start at left tackle. He contributed to Notre Dame's 236-yard rushing performance in a 40-8 win over Oregon State.
A rising sophomore, the Illinois native redshirted as a true freshman last season, taking five snaps against Stanford in November before starting the Sun Bowl.
Jagusah's injury puts Notre Dame in a tough spot, since both starting tackles from last year's Irish team were lost to the NFL draft.
The Irish received more bad news Monday, with the team also announcing that walk-on defensive back Marty Auer tore his left ACL and also will miss the 2024 season.
