Jordan Shipp, Derek McDonald post UNC’s best PFF grades vs. Notre Dame

Posted Oct 4, 2026
Receiver Jordan Shipp and linebacker Derek McDonald posted UNC's top Pro Football Focus grades in Saturday’s loss to No. 3 Notre Dame. The Tar Heels’ team defense grade, though, was a season-low 67.2, and the team offensive grade was the second-lowest this season at 62. That had a lot to do with facing one of the best teams in the country. (Tar Heel Tribune)
