Jerome Bettis Jr. knows where he will be continuing his education and career in football.
It has been nearly 32 years since Jerome Bettis played football for Notre Dame, but come 2025, a new Bettis will be doing so.
Notre Dame landed a commitment Sunday from 2025 wide receiver Jerome Bettis Jr., the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer and former Fighting Irish running back Jerome Bettis.
The three-star wide receiver from Woodward Academy in Atlanta, Georgia, picked Notre Dame over other programs, including Texas A&M, NC State and Arkansas.
Bettis Jr. announced his commitment on social media by posting a video showing his early years growing up and playing football.

Former NFL legend and Notre Dame alum Jerome “The Bus” Bettis was one of the most physical runners to ever grace college football and the National Fotball League. In his prime, the 5-foot-11, 252-pound bruiser had the physical prowess to deliver as much punishment as he received during his 13-year NFL career.
Now his son, Jerome Bettis Jr., has a chance to follow in his footsteps but at a different position. The Woodward athlete caught 30 passes for 369 yards and four touchdowns as a junior. He also spent time playing safety for the Eagles and racked up 34 tackles, two interceptions and two tackles for loss.
