Notre Dame CB Karson Hobbs Enters Transfer Portal With Two Years of Eligibility

The sophomore corner departs following a reduced role in a crowded secondary.

Overview

  • His agent informed On3’s Hayes Fawcett of the move, which was then reported by outlets including ClutchPoints and Yahoo Sports on Dec. 27–28.
  • He will be available to transfer with two seasons of NCAA eligibility remaining.
  • He opened 2025 as the No. 2 nickel before sliding down the depth chart as Dallas Golden took over the role behind DeVonta Smith.
  • Across 16 games at Notre Dame he logged seven tackles, one interception and one pass defended, with a final appearance in the 70–7 win over Syracuse on Nov. 22.
  • No destination has been reported, and his exit comes as Notre Dame’s defensive back room remains deep with multiple recent portal departures.
