DT Chris Hinton’s path to Michigan, outlook for 2021

Michigan defensive tackle Chris Hinton was a highly touted prospect heading to Ann Arbor. The hopes were Hinton could develop into one of the best at his position in college football. However, Hinton’s career hasn’t materialized to the level expected yet. “Personally, I always feel like I could play better,” Hinton said last season, despite receiving good grades from Pro Football Focus. “I don’t care how well I play. I’m a hard critic on myself. I’ve been like that since I was a little kid. My parents, they’ve instilled that in me. Just never be satisfied.

The story so far

Hinton came to Michigan via the Greater Atlanta Christian School, where he made his presence known.
