After a year at Wisconsin, Billy Edwards is heading back east.
The former Badger and Maryland Terrapin is signing with North Carolina. Edwards was Wisconsin’s Week 1 starter in 2025 but suffered a knee injury in the opener and made just one more appearance the rest of the season.
In 2024, Edwards was 273-of-420 passing for 2,881 yards, 15 TDs and nine interceptions.
Belichick and UNC added former South Alabama QB Gio Lopez via the transfer portal in the spring and, with Lopez expected to stay in Chapel Hill, he’ll compete with Edwards for the starting job.
