Over the course of the last four years, Notre Dame tight end Eli Raridon gave it his all and showed gratitude to the Irish faithful as he pursues his NFL career.
On Thursday, he shared a heartfelt thank you to Irish Nation, as he grew up a Notre Dame fan and “getting to play here was truly a dream come true.” Raridon thanked Notre Dame for “challenging me, pushing me, and helping me grow as both a player and a person.”
He also took time out to thank head coach Marcus Freeman saying “thank you for believing in me, recruiting me, and giving me the opportunity to live out my dream here.” You can tell this was written from the heart, as Raridon expressed how much it meant to him to be part of the program.
We’ll get to see him one more time wearing the Gold helmet as Raridon prepares for life in the NFL.

“Growing up a Notre Dame fan, getting to play here has truly been a dream come true. The brotherhood, the friendships, and the people in this program have meant the world to me.”
