Many have wondered who will be available for Notre Dame this weekend, as it will have a top-25 road contest on its hands when it faces Pittsburgh.

The Panthers enter the game as the No. 23 in the US LBM Coaches Poll and a 7-2 record, with hopes of sneaking into the College Football Playoff. The Irish are firmly in at the moment, and another ranked win would certainly help the cause.

Unfortunately, it looks like Notre Dame won’t be fully healthy heading into this weekend, as it released its Thursday injury report with multiple players already being ruled out against the Panthers. The biggest name has to be wide receiver Jaden Greathouse, as he’s been battling a leg injury that he just can’t seem to shake. The previous weeks he had been questionable, but this week is much different.

Also notable is that kicker Noah Burnette is listed as out, as he tried to play though his hip injury, only to see the Irish opt to rest him and go with Erik Schmidt was his replacement. He didn’t attempt a field goal against Navy, but did make all seven of his extra-points. The final one that hurts is defensive tackle Gabriel Rubio, who just hasn’t been able to stay on the field and also is listed as out.
