Freshman Tommy Carr is again expected to start at quarterback for Michigan on Saturday, with Bryce Underwood also likely to play against Oregon, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel on Tuesday.
Coach Kyle Whittingham told reporters Monday that the starter for this week's game is still being determined.
Carr, the grandson of former coach Lloyd Carr and the younger brother of Notre Dame starting quarterback CJ Carr, had two interceptions and only 138 yards passing in the loss to Michigan State on Saturday, earning his lowest QBR (38.8) of the season.
Whittingham said after the game that the coaches considered replacing Carr with Underwood late in the third quarter.
Offensive coordinator Jason Beck was fired Sunday, with offensive line coach Jim Harding serving as interim coordinator for the rest of the season.
Carr started Michigan's last two games after replacing Underwood during an Oct. 17 win against Penn State.
Underwood, the nation's No. 1 recruit in 2025, started throughout last season under coach Sherrone Moore and opened this season as Michigan's starter. He has 924 passing yards with five touchdowns and six interceptions.
