As far as the Michigan contingent is concerned, we’ve seen Tom Brady go to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Graham Glasgow go to the Denver Broncos. Now,. another former Wolverine is on the move as wide receiver Devin Funchess looks to move on to his third team.

A stalwart receiver with the Carolina Panthers, Funchess spent last season with the Indianapolis Colts. However, he’s moving relatively close by geographically-speaking, as it was announced on Tuesday that he’s signing with the Green Bay Packers.

In his five-years in the NFL, Funchess has started in 41 of his 62 appearances, with 164 receptions for 2,265 yards and 21 touchdowns.

He only played in one game for the Colts however, after breaking his collarbone in Indianapolis’ 2019 season opener.
