Jayden Reed made an immediate impact as a freshman at Western Michigan, leading the Broncos in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns.

Now, he'll take those skills to East Lansing.

Reed announced Thursday on Twitter he's transferring to Michigan State. He will have to sit out next season because of NCAA transfer rules.

The 6-foot, 170-pound product out of Naperville (Ill.) Central had 56 catches for 797 yards and eight touchdowns in his first season at Western Michigan, averaging 14.2 yards per catch. His season included four 100-yard games, including 137 yards and four touchdowns against Miami (Ohio).
