Jake Butt Announces He Will Return to Michigan for Senior Season

Following a breakout 2015 season, Michigan Wolverines tight end Jake Butt announced Tuesday he will return to school for his senior season.

Butt made the announcement on Twitter:

Speaking to reporters Monday, per Mark Snyder of the Detroit Free-Press, Butt said he was split on whether to return to school or go to the NFL: "I'd say it's 50/50. I can't say I'm leaning one way or another without talking to coach Harbaugh. I really want to hear his input on everything."

In the same report, Butt also stated he would need to be a "top-three-round" selection in the NFL draft to leave the Wolverines.
