  "account": "Notre Dame football experienced a handful of injuries, and on Monday, the availability report for their upcoming matchup against Miami was announced. There were some positive updates, with defensive lineman Francis Brewu and safety Jason Onye listed as questionable for the game. Both players were heavily impacted in their previous game against Navy, likely sidelining them for their next matchup. On the negative side, cornerback Drayk Bowen is ruled out due to a right ankle injury, which appears to be quite severe. After the Navy game, rumors suggested that his injury was more significant than initially thought. Freeman did not provide further details during his press conference, other than confirming that Bowen rolled his ankle against Navy. The depth chart released for Miami showed that star cornerback Leonard Moore and linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa are fully recovered and ready to play. Overall, the injury news ahead of the Miami game was a mixed bag, but Notre Dame, like most teams in college football, is dealing with a fair amount of injuries as the regular season is nearing its conclusion.
