Jack Kiser played more games for Notre Dame football than any other player in program history.

The next football game Kiser plays in will likely be for the Jacksonville, who selected him Saturday in the fourth round with pick No. 107 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Kiser ended his Notre Dame career, which spanned six seasons, with at least 45 tackles in each of the past four seasons. His 275 career tackles are the 21st-most in program history.

Kiser played in just four games to qualify for a redshirt season as a freshman. He expanded his role on special teams and as a reserve defender in 2020. He then became a significant contributor on defense the next four seasons.

Kiser made eight starts primarily as a rover linebacker in as a junior in 2021. He totaled 45 tackles and intercepted a pair of passes and returned them for touchdowns.

Kiser’s starting role shrank in 2022 and 2023, but his impact didn’t. He totaled 58 tackles in 2022 and 62 in 2023. After Marist Liufau (third round) and JD Bertrand (fifth round) left for the 2024 NFL Draft, Kiser became a full-time starter for the first time in his career last season.

Kiser set a career high and led the team with 90 tackles last season. He added five tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, two recovered fumbles, two sacks and one pass breakup.

Kiser became the third Notre Dame linebacker to be selected in the past two drafts after Liufau and Bertrand. He also became Notre Dame’s second in-state recruit to get drafted following Blake Fisher of Avon, Ind., in last year’s draft.

Kiser signed with Notre Dame as a three-star recruit out of Royal Center (Ind.) Pioneer. Rivals ranked him as the No. 37 outside linebacker in the 2019 recruiting class. Kiser ended up being the fifth linebacker selected in the 2025 draft class.
