While at Alabama, new Michigan football offensive coordinator Josh Gattis used multiple tight ends during games. The Crimson Tide offense saw one tight end block and one release downfield. Also, at times both blocked, as well as both released downfield. Sound crazy? It actually is not. It goes back to what Gattis has been preaching since arriving in Ann Arbor.
That’s getting players in space and letting them use their athletic ability and getting playmakers the ball by any means necessary. Yes, Michigan football will line up with one tight end and multiple wide receivers as well.
