Junior Colson’s path to Michigan, outlook for 2022

He joined the Michigan Wolverines with a pretty high ceiling and plenty of promise, and his raw athleticism is what got him on the field so early in his career.
Last year was a bit up-and-down though, which should not be too shocking but with all of the departures on defense, it would be nice to be able to rely a bit more on a returning starter in the middle of the formation. The Wolverines are not quite able to do that, unfortunately, unless Colson is able to show some significant progress from last season.
