Notre Dame starting quarterback Malik Zaire was carried off the field due to injury with just 54-seconds left in the third quarter of the game against Virginia Saturday.
The injury occurred in his ankle shortly after fellow teammate ran a 24 yard touchdown with a leading score of 26-14 at the end of the 3rd quarter.
In his post-game press conference, Notre Dame Head Coach Brian Kelly told the media Zaire fractured his right ankle and will be out for the season.
Coach Kelly called his injury unfortunate.
