After four years in Ann Arbor, one of Michigan’s best pass rushers is moving on.

With a year of eligibility remaining, Wolverines SAM linebacker Josh Uche announced that he will forgo his final season, declaring for the NFL Draft.

The 2019 season was Uche’s best, as he led the team with 8.5 sacks and was second to only Kwity Paye in tackles for loss with 11.5.

Uche burst onto the scene in 2018 with 7 sacks and 8 tackles for loss. He played sparingly in both 2016-17, and redshirted in 2016.

Per his announcement, Uche does intend to play in the bowl game.
