Quiet day in opener Orji completed 1 of 2 passes for three yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-10 win against Fresno State. He also had five rushes for 32 yards.
Impact Though Orji split snaps with fellow quarterback Davis Warren, it was Warren that accounted for the vast majority of pass attempts on the day, whereas Orji was mostly responsible for leading the rushing attack. The disparity in passing down workload is certainly concerning for Orji's fantasy relevance, but a top-10 matchup against Texas on Saturday will go a long way towards settling the position battle.

Set for backup role Orji was spotted with the second offense ahead of the start of Saturday's contest against Fresno State, Aaron McMann of MLive.com reports.
Impact Orji was believed to be leading the race for the starting role under center in mid-August, but it seems Davis Warren has overtaken him over the last few days. A junior, Orji has made nine appearances for the Wolverines in his first two years with the program.
