UM's Perry talks it up to mentor younger receivers

Ann Arbor — Not so quietly, senior receiver Grant Perry is making certain everyone is aware he is big presence among Michigan’s receivers.

While younger receivers Tarik Black, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Nico Collins and Oliver Martin garner a great deal of attention, steady veteran Perry is beginning to flex his muscles as the leader in the receivers room.

Perry played with an ankle injury late last season and finished with 307 yards and a touchdowns on 25 catches. He has 618 receiving yards on 52 receptions and scored three touchdowns during his Michigan career. He said he was 100-percent healthy as the team went through winter conditioning.
