Michigan hires Grant Newsome as tight ends coach

Michigan has hired Grant Newsome as their new tight ends coach. Newsome, a former Michigan offensive lineman, served as a graduate assistant for Michigan the past few years.

Newsome moving to tight ends coach comes with Jay Harbaugh shifting from tight ends coach and special teams coordinator to becoming UM’s safeties coach and special teams coordinator.

“Grant has been a positive, motivating force within our coaching staff since he joined us as a student assistant,” said Harbaugh. “We have had a front-row seat to Grant’s development as a coach and are excited that he has chosen to accept our offer to become a full-time assistant.
