The 2023/24 National Championship-winning Michigan Wolverines are set to bid farewell to yet another crucial member of their team. Following the departures of prominent offensive linemen LaDarius Henderson and Zak Zinter, both expected to be early picks in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, the Wolverines are now facing the loss of Junior Colson, one of the most resilient players in the 2024 draft class. Alongside other offensive assets entering the transfer portal, it appears that another significant name is joining the list of departures from Michigan.
