Patterson will now be able to play in the upcoming 2018 season rather than being forced to sit out after his transfer from Ole Miss.
Last year for Mississippi, Patterson played in seven games, throwing for 2,259 yards and 17 touchdowns with nine interceptions. He was a highly-touted recruit coming out of the IMG Academy in Florida, as he was a top-five prospect and five-star.
