Michigan lands commitment from 3-star linebacker Tyler McLaurin

Michigan added a second linebacker to its 2021 football recruiting class Saturday with the commitment Saturday of Tyler McLaurin, a three-star prospect from Bolingbrook, Illinois.

The 6-foot-2, 210-pound outside linebacker picked the Wolverines from a top five that also included Michigan State, Nebraska, Iowa State and Texas Tech.

McLaurin earlier told Allen Trieu of 247Sports, who also is a Detroit News contributor, he likes what Michigan offers both athletically and academically.

“What’s important about (Michigan), me and my family find them a well-rounded society,” McLaurin told Trieu.
