U-M backup QB Dylan McCaffrey on how close the quarterbacks have become Angelique S. Chengelis, The Detroit News
Ann Arbor — When starting Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson had to leave the season opener at Notre Dame because of leg cramps, redshirt freshman Dylan McCaffrey took over the offense and made the transition look easy.
McCaffrey is the Wolverines’ backup quarterback and has played in three of four games this season. He is 8-of-15 for 126 yards and two touchdowns.
“Anyone is going to be nervous going into a game, but it’s a matter of getting that first play done,” McCaffrey said Tuesday night of entering the Notre Dame game late.
