Notre Dame QB Tyler Buchner (shoulder) likely out for season

Notre Dame quarterback Tyler Buchner is likely out for the season with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder.

Buchner will have surgery on Tuesday and is facing a four-month recovery period.

"He ended up getting I think a Grade 5 out of 6 AC sprain in his (left) shoulder," Irish coach Marcus Freeman said Monday.

Buchner is not on the depth chart for Saturday's game between Notre Dame (0-2) and Cal (2-0) in South Bend,
