Michigan QB Brandon Peters enters NCAA transfer portal

Brandon Peters, who became the starting quarterback for Michigan late in the 2017 season, not surprisingly has placed his name in the NCAA transfer portal.

Peters’ decision to transfer was first reported Saturday morning by Cole Cubelic of the SEC Network and confirmed by The Detroit News.

Although Peters participated in spring practice, Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh never listed him among the top three quarterbacks in the competition. Shea Patterson, who transferred to Michigan from Ole Miss in December 2017, won the job last fall, and Peters was relegated to a backup role behind No.
