Former Michigan wide receiver Semaj Morgan has found his next home. According to a report from Hayes Fawcett of On3 Sports, Morgan has committed to UCLA after entering the NCAA Transfer Portal following the 2025 season.
Morgan, who has one year of eligibility remaining, leaves Ann Arbor after three seasons in a Wolverines uniform. During that span, he totaled 69 receptions for 566 yards and four touchdowns, while also contributing as a versatile gadget player in Michigan’s offense and occasional rushing option.
A former Big Ten champion as a freshman in 2023, Morgan appeared in 37 career games. His production steadily evolved during his time in Ann Arbor, highlighted by a 2025 campaign in which he recorded 20 catches for 223 yards and a touchdown, averaging just over 20 receiving yards per game. Morgan also added value on the ground throughout his career, finishing with 124 rushing yards and two scores on 15 carries.
At UCLA, Morgan brings experience, explosiveness after the catch, and positional versatility to a Bruins program looking to strengthen its receiver room heading into the 2026 season. His ability to work underneath defenses and create in space should make him an immediate candidate for offensive snaps, and potentially special teams work, in Westwood.
Michigan, meanwhile, continues to navigate a busy offseason roster transition that includes portal departures, incoming transfers, and internal competition heading into the next era of Wolverines football.
Morgan now turns the page to a new chapter in the Big Ten, this time wearing UCLA blue and gold.
