The Patriots quarterback will be an honorary captain for a weekend at MI, his alma mater, according to Wolverines coach Jim Harbaugh.
The game will take place at home for MI, where Brady played football from 1995-99. That weekend is Week 2 of the National Football League season when Brady’s New England Patriots play the Miami Dolphins.
Brady played quarterback for the Wolverines from 1996-199 and started in his final two seasons with the team.
Brady needs no introduction as a four-time Super Bowl winning quarterback.
Brady also showed his support for the program in February, attending the Signing of the Stars recruiting event and sitting on the stage with Harbaugh. He played for MI from 1995 to 1999, serving as a backup on the 1997 national championship team and leading the team to an Orange Bowl victory as a senior.
