The Michigan Wolverines may not have to wait long before seeing their highly touted freshman quarterback, Bryce Underwood, take the field. While most first-year signal-callers typically spend their freshman seasons learning from the sidelines,

Bryce Underwood could be seeing the field far earlier than expected. On Monday, new Michigan offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey told reporters Underwood could be in the mix to play quarterback for the Wolverines as a freshman.

The No. 1 player in the country in 2025, Underwood signed with Michigan football, a team that has a need for an exemplary starting quarterback after a moribund season at the position a year ago. The mix of talent and need makes it an intriguing situation, especially with the Wolverines having brought in a new offensive coordinator in Chip Lindsey.
