Michigan Football 2017 Player Profile: Chris Evans

De’Veon Smith ran the ball 181 times last season for Michigan football. That’s a lot, and he’s not going to be an option in 2017. With such a wide gap to be filled in the backfield, sophomore Chris Evans looks like a good candidate to see his role significantly increased.

That’s the topic of this episode of the Go Blue Crew. We’re starting a series of shorter episodes (10-15 minutes) that look at only one player at a time, and we’ll discuss their role/impact for this season.

We started with Evans.

On one hand, Wolverines fans really liked Evans last season.
