ANN ARBOR, Mich. — It was a surprise as Michigan football was set to kick off the 2024 season when Davis Warren was set to become the starter above the offseason favorite, Alex Orji. But the early goings for the former walk-on were rough, as he struggled to throw the football to his own team.

Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore and offensive coordinator Kirk Campbell have fielded questions regarding true freshman quarterback Jadyn Davis’ progression throughout the season. The 6-foot-1, 205-pounder burst onto the national recruiting scene early in his high school career and was pegged as the No.

The Wolverines' 2024 quarterback commit, Jadyn Davis, saw his first taste of action last weekend during Michigan's 50-6 win over Northwestern. Kirk Campbell inserted Davis for Davis Warren and Davis took one snap -- a handoff to Tavierre Dunlap for a touchdown.

For all of the hullabaloo surrounding Michigan football flipping five-star quarterback and No. 1 overall recruit in 2025, Bryce Underwood, the Wolverines had a prince that was promised, an heir apparent on the roster.
