Last fall, due to injuries to the Wolverines’ top two tight ends, Colston Loveland, then a true freshman, assumed a much larger role than expected.

Despite facing adversity and unfavorable circumstances, he excelled and found a new place within the Michigan football program. This year, alongside new transfer portal addition AJ Barner, Loveland aims to shine once again, contributing to his team’s pursuit of another Big Ten title and more success.
