Max Bredeson’s path to Michigan, outlook for 2023

Max Bredeson is a football player’s football player. A tight end who simply relishes the opportunity to knock a linebacker to the turf and clear the way for Michigan’s dynamic running backs.

It started slow for the third Bredeson to come through Ann Arbor, but his role is continuing to increase with every passing season.

The story so far

Bredeson came to U-M as a preferred walk-on and played in only one game — garbage time against Northern Illinois — as a freshman. But as a sophomore, Bredeson played in all 14 games at tight end and on special teams, and even notched his first career start.
