Jim Harbaugh is doing everything he can to put Blake Corum's injury concerns to rest. The Michigan football head coach shared high praise for running back Donovan Edwards, per 247Sports.

“This guy (Edwards)has 401 yards in the last two games,” Harbaugh said. “You want to talk about big games? This guy comes alive in the big games.”

Corum recently underwent surgery. The star running back was a Heisman Trophy candidate prior to suffering his injury. But Jim Harbaugh is confident that Donovan Edwards can help Michigan football moving forward.

Blake Corum previously shared a post-surgery message with Wolverines' fans.

“Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers, surgery was a success! I believe God does everything for a reason and this is just a obstacle I have to overcome along my journey. Even though I won’t be at game today I will be there in spirit and best believe my guys are ready,” Corum said.
