It seemed as if he was coming into his own, both as a player and a leader, but one Michigan football defensive back decided he’ll thrive with a change of scenery.

Once a preferred walk-on, Hunter Reynolds eventually found his way onto scholarship, and had a good showing in his limited action in 2020. It appeared he was ready to become a key part of the safety rotation, but the former cornerback announced he intended to transfer.

On Saturday, we learned where he’ll be headed, as he posted on social media that he’s committing to Utah State to finish out his college career.

Reynolds may not have been a household name on the field, but in the wake of protests across America, he used his voice and became a part of the Big Ten’s leadership team addressing racism. Reynolds was also an outspoken leader when it came to players’ rights and the #WeWantToPlay movement.
