Dick Corbett Head Football Coach Brian Kelly has named seven captains for his program in 2021. Avery Davis, Kyle Hamilton, Kurt Hinish, Jarrett Patterson, Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa, Drew White and Kyren Williams will serve in the role this fall for the Fighting Irish. All seven players were SWAT captains during the summer workouts.

The group matches the all-time high for captains in a single season, with the Irish naming seven captains for the 2017 and 2019 seasons. DeShone Kizer, Greer Martini, Mike McGlinchey, Nyles Morgan, Quenton Nelson, Drue Tranquill and Austin Webster were selected for the post that season (Kizer went on to declare for the NFL Draft that season and then Josh Adams was elevated to captain). In 2019, Ian Book, Jalen Elliott, Chris Finke, Alohi Gilman, Robert Hainsey, Khalid Kareem and Julian Okwara led the Irish during the season.

All told, over 200 student-athletes have served the role of captain for the Notre Dame Football team.
