Michigan wide receivers coach discusses competition for No. 3 receiver
Summary

Michigan football continues to evaluate its options for the No. 3 wide receiver position as the season progresses. After initially naming Channing Goodwin as the third receiver, Salesi Moa has seen more snaps and may challenge for the role. Both players, along with true freshman Travis Johnson and transfer Jaime Ffrench, have been part of the rotation. Wide receivers coach Micah Simon emphasized the need for cohesion in the offense as they experiment with various personnel groupings. Michigan will face Minnesota next and could see a shift in receiver usage as they adjust for efficiency.
