Michigan Football captains announced for 2022 season

Michigan football voted for team captains on Thursday.

This year there will be five:

  • Cade McNamara (Quarterback)
  • Erick All (Tight End)
  • Ronnie Bell (Receiver)
  • Mazi Smith (Defensive Tackle)
  • Mike Sainristil (Nickel Back/Receiver)

There’s not one surprise on this list, and for good reason, the team has many veteran leaders in 2022.

Smith has taken on a bigger leadership role on defense this season with Aidan Hutchinson now in the NFL. Bell was out for nearly the entire season in 2021 but was still the equivalent of a player-coach.
