Donovan People-Jones

Donovan Peoples-Jones (born February 19, 1999), also known as "DPJ", is an American football wide receiver and return specialist for the Michigan Wolverines.

Peoples-Jones was born in Detroit in 1999, the son of Roz Peoples and Eddie Jones. He attended Cass Technical High School where he was a five-star recruit and rated as the best wide receiver recruit from the State of Michigan since Charles Rogers in 2000. On December 16, 2016, he committed to play for the University of Michigan in a nationally televised press conference on ESPN2.

He enrolled early in January 2017. After watching People-Jones and fellow freshman Tarik Black in spring practice, offensive lineman Mason Cole predicted the pair were "going to be unbelievable."

On September 2, 2017, People-Jones started at punt returner as a true freshman in Michigan's season opener against Florida. He returned five punts for 40 yards, including an 18-yard return. In his second game, he ran 44 yards on a jet sweep in the first quarter against Cincinnati. In his third game, he returned two punts for 104 yards, including a 79-yard return for a touchdown in the third quarter against Air Force.
