According to a late Sunday night post on his Twitter, Michigan freshman wide receiver Quintel Kent will not play this season.

"Due to some unfortunate medical findings, I will not have the opportunity to participate in this year's football season," Kent wrote. "I would like to thank Michigan and especially my family for the endless amounts of support. I will continue to pursue my education at the University. Although I don't fully understand this part of my journey, I trust in God's plan for what the future holds. Go Blue."

Kent's situation arises just as the Wolverines have begun their 2019 fall camp. The Lakewood (OH) St. Edward native committed to Michigan early in the process and rose over 400 spots in the 247Sports 2019 rankings after a great senior season. While it was unclear whether or not Kent was an instant impact prospect, it's believed the coaching staff was high on his abilities, as was 247Sports. Per his scouting report:

"This is a very fundamentally sound, extremely solid and productive wide receiver, and Kent is probably a player that is being added for his versatility by Michigan. Keep in mind that this was not a player they offered based on film from October of 2017 like we are watching, but from a stellar camp appearance from June. I love camp offers because you are getting the most up to date snapshot of a player that you can get. Kent catches everything thrown his way, and a teammate of his told me he does this every day in practice as well. He is a fine route runner, as we can see on film, and he has enough speed to play in the Big Ten. He is also a fine returner on both kicks and punts, and will be a special teams contributor as well. Kent could end up playing the slot, where I think he fits best, but Michigan has told him to be prepared to play on the outside as well. His size makes him limited as a blocker, but playing at St. Edward will give him plenty of opportunities to do so, as they are a run-heavy team. He gets few opportunities to catch passes, so he's not going to put up big stats in that offense."

Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh is high on his team heading into the 2019 season.

"I feel like our team is in a really good place," Harbaugh said at Big Ten Media Days in Chicago last month. "Young, enthusiastic team with players with a lot of good experience. I feel really good about our coaching staff, and like I said, I feel like it's good, it's tight, and we're proceeding on a daily basis to make it even tighter, even better.

"That's what we're trying to do better, trying to do more, focus on that day-to-day. ... I think it's tight. But like an anaconda, you want to just keep squeezing it tighter and making it better, and that's where our football team is."

We'll have more on Kent as more information becomes available.
