The Michigan Wolverines have large shoes to fill at tight end with Colston Loveland off to the NFL. Despite the first-round pick’s departure, Michigan should still feel confident in its Marlin Klein/Hogan Hansen-led group, and its track record of developing the position to keep things going in 2025 and beyond.
However, even with Klein and Hansen’s multiple years of eligibility remaining, the position will need some reinforcements in the 2026 recruiting class after Michigan didn’t take a traditional tight end (Eli Owens is more of a Max Bredeson style H-back/tight end).
According to On3’s Ethan McDowell ($), the Wolverines have a really great shot at landing both four-star Matt Ludwig and three-star Mason Bonner.
