Notre Dame wide receiver Lorenzo Styles enters transfer portal
Lorenzo Styles explored a move from receiver to cornerback in the second half of spring practice. Now he’s looking to move on from Notre Dame.
Styles is in the transfer portal, according to On3’s Matt Zenitz. He will presumably not participate in Saturday’s Blue-Gold Game (2 p.m. ET, Peacock). The junior-to-be has two seasons of eligibility left.
The 6-foot-1, 192-pound Styles led all Notre Dame wide receivers in catches (30) and yards (340) last year. His role decreased as the season went on, though, mainly due to issues with drops that he and head coach Marcus Freeman later admitted became a mental hurdle. Pro Football Focus credited him with six drops, including four in a five-game span. He had just seven catches in the final five games of the 2022 season.
Notre Dame initially kept him at receiver in spring practice, but experimented with him at cornerback for a couple team drills in an April 12 open practice. He played exclusively wide receiver in an April 15 closed scrimmage and exclusively cornerback in an April 18 practice. He was selected in the team’s Blue-Gold Game draft Thursday as an “athlete” who would play both ways.
