Notre Dame QB Riley Leonard accepts invite to prestigious postseason game

Leonard’s college career won’t end with the Irish

When Notre Dame football quarterback [autotag]Riley Leonard[/autotag] takes his final snap for the Irish later this season, it won’t be his last as a collegiate player.

The senior accepted an invitation to the [autotag]Reese’s Senior Bowl[/autotag] on Thursday, giving him an opportunity to to impress NFL teams as they will be in attendance for the whole week of practice leading up to the game.

We saw a similar instance last season, as Sam Hartman was also invited to the game and while he went undrafted, he signed a contract with the Washington Commanders. Leonard might not end up taking that same path, as it does look like he should get drafted by team.

Regardless of where he lands, it will be a great opportunity for Leonard to improve his draft stock in Mobile, Alabama and show teams that he can handle the intricacies of an NFL offense.
