Michigan freshman running back Donovan Edwards had a game earlier this year versus Northern Illinois where he rushed for 86 yards and 2 touchdowns — besides that game, Edwards has been waiting his turn behind Hassan Haskins and Blake Corum.
With Corum sidelined on Saturday against Maryland, Edwards stepped up in a major way. The former four-star prospect hauled in 10 catches for 170 yards and 1 touchdown — the 170 receiving yards are the most by a Michigan running back in program history.
“I feel like it was a good moment for me to showcase my talent,” Edwards said.
