What Braden Chaffin’s commitment means for Michigan football
Michigan’s football program added an offensive lineman to its 2027 recruiting class on Wednesday, flipping Sterling Heights Stevenson three-star offensive lineman Braden Chaffin from Stanford.
Here’s what his commitment means for the Wolverines:
-- When he was hired, head coach Kyle Whittingham said he would make in-state recruiting a priority. That has held true so far. Chaffin is the fifth in-state prospect to commit in the 2027 cycle, and three of Michigan’s four offensive line commits are from Michigan. Chaffin joins Kalamazoo Loy Norrix four-star tackle Jakari Lipsey and Saline three-star interior lineman Louis Esposito.
