Ann Arbor — Michigan running back Donovan Edwards, who last week retweeted an antisemitic post, later deleted it and issued two apologies, was not punished or suspended because it was a “mistake."
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday during his weekly news conference he knows what kind of person Edwards is, and said he spoke to his teammates and apologized. Edwards played in Michigan's game against Michigan State last Saturday.
“Inadvertent. It was a mistake,” Harbaugh said. “(The situation) was addressed to Donovan. Donovan addressed the team, as well.
