Michigan Wolverines edge rusher Cameron Brandt and safety Mason Curtis have continued to emerge as key defensive contributors with increased playing time in recent games. Both have displayed flashes of intriguing potential early in their careers, and their growth this year could lay the foundation for what is to come in future seasons for the sophomore and true freshman, respectively.
Brandt has impressed with his ability to make a significant impact in a reserve role in 2024, racking up nine tackles, two sacks and one forced fumble in six games. In a narrow win over the Michigan State Spartans, Brandt had a breakout performance that included three tackles and one sack to help Michigan secure the victory.
