Notre Dame cornerback Benjamin Morrison has been a standout defensive player, known for his exceptional coverage skills and football intelligence. However, his journey to the 2025 NFL Draft has been impacted by a significant injury that sidelined him for a portion of the 2024 season.
In October 2024, Morrison suffered a hip labrum tear during a game against Stanford, which required season-ending surgery. This injury was a considerable setback for the junior cornerback, who had been a key contributor to Notre Dame's defense where in six games before the injury, he had amassed 20 tackles and four pass breakups.
His ability to read offenses and make plays on the ball has made him a valuable asset in the secondary.
Morrison's injury has introduced some uncertainty regarding his draft stock. While he was previously projected as a first-round pick, concerns about his health have caused some analysts to project him in the second round. Teams will closely evaluate his medical reports and recovery progress to determine his readiness for the NFL.
