Fitzgerald is ranked the 55th-best receiver in his 2026 class, per 247Sports.com. He is a three-star prospect out of Brophy Prep in Arizona. 

He won’t be the only son of a former NFL great looking to make his own mark on the game, as the Fighting Irish will be filled with the next generation.

The receivers room alone has Jerome Bettis Jr., the son of Pittsburgh Steelers legend Jerome Bettis; Elijah Burress, whose father is Super Bowl-champion receiver Plaxico Burress; and Kaydon Finley, the son of Green Bay Packers Super Bowl-champion Jermichael Finley. 

On defense, Thomas Davis Jr., the son of ex-Carolina Panthers All-Pro Thomas Davis, also said he’s heading to South Bend in 2026.

Fitzgerald revealed to ESPN that Notre Dame offered him a scholarship in May following his junior season, where he hauled in 52 receptions for 720 yards with nine touchdowns. He also has a good relationship with Mike Brown, who he has known "since I was 5 years old."
