KVA is back, but who's out for Notre Dame football vs. Rice?

Here is the Notre Dame football pregame injury report ahead of its game against Rice.

SOUTH BEND — Notre Dame football has reintegrated star linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa into the active roster just in time for their upcoming clash against the 45.5-point underdog Rice. The junior from Inland Empire, California, successfully completed full warmups ahead of Saturday’s home opener. However, it remains unclear how many plays Viliamu-Asa will see before the upcoming two-game stretch against formidable opponents Michigan State and Purdue.

Freshman defensive tackle Elijah Golden, who sat out the Wisconsin game, was present during warmups but donned a brace on his right ankle area. Sophomore defensive end Joe Reiff, another 6-5, 264-pound prospect from Elmhurst, Illinois, also remained sidelined during the warmups. According to Irish PR, all players on Notre Dame’s two-deep roster were deemed available to face Rice.

Mike Berardino, a Notre Dame football reporter for the South Bend Tribune and NDInsider.com, provided this insight.
