Michigan football quarterback Jeff George Jr., the son of former NFL quarterback Jeff George, is leaving the program for a graduate transfer opportunity elsewhere.
Michigan spokesman Dave Ablauf confirmed George's departure from the team Friday night. According to a report from TheWolverineLounge.com, George will head to Pittsburgh.
This marks the end of a brief run at Michigan for George, who transferred to the program in June after leaving Illinois earlier in the year.
George saw action in five games for Illinois as a redshirt freshman in 2016. He made his first start at Michigan on Oct.
