Pro Football Focus has named its team of the week for this past weekend of games and there is Notre Dame representation on it and as you’d probably assume after watching Saturday’s 38-7 destruction of Duke, it was a defensive player.
Asmar Bilal recorded five tackles without missing any, a quarterback hit and didn’t allow a catch in his coverages.
The man in the middle for the Fighting Irish, Bilal was dominant in all facets for Notre Dame in their win against Duke. He recorded a QB hit, five total tackles without a miss and didn’t allow a catch into his coverage. He spent double-digit snaps in all facets and put forth great grades, leading the team in overall grade while finishing with elite grades in run defense. – Pro Football Focus on Bilal
