Connor Stalions Netflix documentary: Release date, how to watch 'Sign Stealer'

One year ago, Connor Stalions was an anonymous staffer for the Michigan football program, a figure who was indistinguishable from the more than 100,000 people who cram inside Michigan Stadium for Wolverines home games.

Now, he’s one of the more notorious and fascinating figures in recent college football history.

Stalions was the central actor in the Michigan sign-stealing scandal last year that became one of the defining storylines of the Wolverines’ run to their first national championship since 1997. Now he's the subject of Netflix's "Sign Stealer," which aired Tuesday as part of the streaming service's "Untold" sports docuseries.

Though details have come out about Stalions’ life and his involvement in the alleged scheme, he has remained quiet since last October, when he was suspended and ultimately resigned from his job as a Michigan analyst shortly after news of the NCAA investigation into the Wolverines’ potential sign-stealing became public.

A man who was thrust into the spotlight only to gradually fade from it is now back in it. And this time, he’ll be speaking. The release of “Sign Stealer” coincides with Michigan receiving its notice of allegations from the NCAA following the organization's probe into the matter.

This season of “Untold,” which also features episodes covering the murder of former NFL quarterback Steve McNair and the life of former United States women’s national soccer team goalie Hope Solo, was teased earlier this month.

With Stalions back in the news, here’s what you need to know about “Sign Stealer,” including when it’s released and how to watch it:
