Canteen will graduate from Michigan in April with an English degree. He will enroll in ND's graduate program in June and is eligible to play this fall.

"Freddy will bring some speed and athleticism to our wide receiver group," Kelly said in a statement. "We’re excited to get him on campus with our coaching staff and players in preparation for the 2017 season. Freddy is a committed, focused and determined individual, both on and off the field, and our receivers and offense will benefit greatly from his addition.”

Canteen made 16 appearances for Michigan as a freshman and sophomore (2014-15) but was sidelined in 2016 with an injury.

"I’m truly honored and humbled for this incredible opportunity," said Canteen. "I’m very thankful to Coach Kelly and his staff for believing in me. I’m excited to start this new chapter in my and can’t wait to get going with my new teammates.”
