Notre Dame star running back Jeremiyah Love will be meeting with the New York Giants for an official “30” visit at the team’s training facility in East Rutherford on Thursday, an individual with knowledge of the interview told NorthJersey.com and The Record.
The 6-foot, 212-pound Love was a weapon for the Fighting Irish last season, finishing with 1,652 yards from scrimmage and 21 touchdowns. He set a Notre Dame football record with two touchdown runs of 90-plus yards, so it came as no surprise that Love stepped onto the field for the Scouting Combine workouts inside Lucas Oil Stadium and posted 40-yard dash times of 4.36 and 4.37 seconds.

The Giants hold the No. 5 overall pick in next month’s NFL Draft, and Love is widely considered one of the best offensive players in the Class of 2026, perhaps the best, even with quarterback Fernando Mendoza set to go No. 1 to the Las Vegas Raiders.
Love met with the Giants two weeks ago at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.
Of his interactions there with the Giants, Love said: “Really cool people. I like them a lot, I feel like they like me a lot as well. Hopefully they call my name on draft night and we can continue building better relationships. Every team has great players, but the Giants in general, being able to play with a back like Skatt, to have someone who is more of a veteran than me that I can learn from, I’d be able to take away a lot from that.”
Love and the Giants will spend more time getting to know each other even more, this time in New Jersey and in the shadow of MetLife Stadium, a place he could one day call home.
