MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Michigan junior Jabrill Peppers will not play for the Wolverines against Florida State in Friday's Capital One Orange Bowl because of an unspecified injury, the school announced.
A source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that Peppers practiced all week and planned on playing, but that he tweaked his hamstring at practice Thursday. Peppers warmed up in full pads at Hard Rock Stadium on Friday but decided he wasn't healthy enough to play shortly before kickoff.
The injury isn't considered serious, but Peppers needed more time to heal, the source said.
