How Cade McNamara is taking a ‘more commanding role’

The Michigan football team is in the middle of their spring practices as we sit here in the middle of March. One thing that is already known is Michigan will have a new starting quarterback to start the 2021 season.

Offensive tackle Andrew Stueber pointed to redshirt sophomore QB Cade McNamara as a player who has taken a leap as a leader and player.

“The quarterbacks competition and level of play has been really interesting to see. Cade’s finally starting to take a more commanding role — it’s different. Last year he played for just a little bit, but it’s obviously different when you think you have the starting job, when you have command of the offense,” Stueber said on Thursday.
