Michigan Football: Position battle at right tackle could get interesting

Juwann Bushell-Beatty had a solid career for Michigan football. It wasn’t spectacular but last season, he found his groove, yet injuries struck and caused him to miss the final few games.

Without Bushell-Beatty in the lineup, Michigan turned to Andrew Stueber. He started down the stretch and while he didn’t play poorly, the line as a whole took a step back against both Ohio State and Florida in a pair of ugly losses.

Now, with Bushell-Beatty out the door due to graduation, it’s time to turn the page. Stueber has been getting most of the first-team reps at right tackle in an effort to win the starting job to open the season, however, he hasn’t locked up anything yet.
