Gary made the decision to forgo his final season with Michigan and prepare for the 2019 NFL Draft. He’s projected to be a first round draft pick.
The star defensive lineman will not play in the Peach Bowl as Michigan takes on Florida.
Gary was a member of Michigan’s highly-touted 2016 recruiting class and was the first major commitment for Jim Harbaugh. He played three seasons with the Wolverines, recording 134 tackles, 24.5 tackles for loss and 10.5 sacks in 35 career games.
This season, Gary played in nine games for the Wolverines, missing the entire month of October due to an injury. He still registered 44 tackles, 7.5 stops for loss and 3.5 sacks.
