Ex-Michigan football WR/KR Giles Jackson commits to Washington

Michigan football could see a familiar face on Sept. 11.

Former receiver and returner Giles Jackson announced Sunday afternoon that he has committed to Washington, roughly two weeks after he originally entered the transfer portal.

The Wolverines and Huskies play in the second week of the 2021 season. The NCAA is expected to grant all college athletes a free transfer that would grant immediate eligibility — a proposal that could pass as soon as this week.

Jackson, who will be a junior this season, was one of Michigan's most promising young special teams playmakers.
