Based on his No. 42 jersey, you might expect Jalen Hoffman to be grinding away as an H-back in the run game. While the junior from Virginia has a knack for doing so and follows in the footsteps of Max Bredeson, it was his ability as a receiver that flashed the most during Michigan’s spring game on Saturday afternoon.
Following the game, Hoffman chuckled when asked if he was the steal of the spring game draft.
“I guess you could say that,” Hoffman said.
Hoffman led all receivers on Saturday afternoon with seven catches for 148 yards and a touchdown.
