### Jeremiyah Love: A Top 10 Pick in the 2026 NFL Draft
In a world where every quarterback from every region is under a microscope as a potential franchise savior, it appears running backs may dictate the skill position picks when the 2026 NFL Draft rolls around in Pittsburgh.
Players like Jonah Coleman in Washington, Justice Haynes slicing through defenses at Michigan, and the dynamic duo Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton at Penn State are all being eyed as potential first-round picks.
However, none have the top-10 draft potential of Notre Dame’s crown jewel, Jeremiyah Love. Returning this season with a vengeance after last year’s national championship loss, Love has been a standout on the field.
Despite a slow start in Week 1 against the Miami Hurricanes—another title contender—Love has racked up over 100 yards in each of his last four games. Just last Saturday, he posted 114 yards and a touchdown against Boise State.
What sets Love apart is not only his exceptional running ability but also his elite hands in an era where running backs are increasingly expected to be versatile receivers. This combination makes him a game-changer for any team.
If a franchise like the Chicago Bears, New England Patriots, or even the Tennessee Titans (who could pair him with Cam Ward) holds a selection in the front half of the 2026 draft, don’t be surprised if they jump on Love. He looks ready to make an immediate impact at the next level.
