Numerous sources have confirmed that Michigan slot receiver Dennis Norfleet is no longer with the program after being dismissed from the team by new head coach Jim Harbaugh.
A three year veteran on the squad, Norfleet started out as a running back, but shifted slot receiver position after his freshman season. Best known for his special teams contributions as a return man, he even played some defense at cornerback during the spring.
“Probably about three-quarters through the spring, we started playing Dennis at the nickel corner, and he took right to it,” said Harbaugh following Michigan’s April 4 Spring Game.
