He was an unused substitute in the victory over Meath in the 2019 National Football League Division 2 Final at Croke Park.

[45] [46] He made a substitute appearance away to Dublin in the penultimate fixture, but did not play against Armagh at O'Donnell Park in the next game. [47] [48] In the 2022 Ulster Senior Football Championship, he made substitute appearances in two of Donegal's three fixtures, the quarter-final against Armagh and the final against Derry (during extra-time). [49] [50] He did not feature in the semi-final against Cavan. [51] He also did not feature in the 2022 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship qualifier loss to Armagh. [52]
