Michigan football linebacker Charles Thomas leaving the team

Charles Thomas, a sophomore linebacker, is leaving the Michigan football team.

Thomas' bio has been removed from the athletic department's website and he is expected to enter the NCAA transfer portal, according to a university spokesman.

As of 11:30 a.m., his name has not been entered into the NCAA's database, according to a source.

The former three-star recruit, who played at three high schools, joined the program last season. He appeared in two games and played 17 snaps — all on special teams.

Thomas is the third scholarship player to leave Michigan since July.
