Marcus Freeman has announced he will return as Notre Dame's head football coach for the 2026 season. The announcement was made on social media platform X, where Freeman wrote “2026…run it back” along with “Go Irish.”
Freeman had been previously linked to NFL head coaching opportunities, including with the Chicago Bears and New York Giants. These rumors intensified after Notre Dame missed the College Football Playoff and chose to opt out of a bowl game. Freeman has also discussed NFL possibilities in the past during an interview with Complex News.
Despite the speculation, Freeman is set to remain with Notre Dame and will focus on pursuing another national championship in the 2026 season.
