Former Michigan defensive end and current Detroit Lions star Aidan Hutchinson revealed Thursday that he is fully cleared for football activities this offseason.

Hutchinson broke his tibia and fibula in the fifth game of last season at the Dallas Cowboys. Through five games, he had 45 pressures, which ranked tied 37th among NFL edge rushers at season’s end.

After the injury, Hutchinson said publicly that he’d aim to return for the Super Bowl if Detroit made it that far. The Lions were bounced in the first round of the playoffs by the Washington Commanders, so “we’ll never know” if he would’ve been available or not.

Michigan baseball concluded the Big Ten Tournament with a 7-5 loss to UCLA Thursday in Omaha. Some notes from MGoBlue.com on the game:

» Michigan fell 7-5 to UCLA in its Big Ten Tournament finale.
» Benny Casillas doubled and homered, scoring twice and bringing home three.
» Greg Pace Jr. scored three runs and had two hits, including a 440-foot home run to center field.
» Tate Carey allowed four runs and struck out six over six innings.

Michigan will find out its NCAA Tournament destiny during the selection show at noon on Monday, May 26. The show will air on ESPN2.

Illinois guard Will Riley, an NBA Draft prospect, spoke to The Wolverine about his former teammate and new Michigan forward Morez Johnson Jr.

“He’s a great player. He’s probably one of the best teammates I’ve ever played with. He’s just a good guy overall,” Riley said.

Michigan football landed a commitment from Denver (Colo.) Mullen three-star tight end Mason Bonner. The 6-foot-6, 200-pounder ranks as the 38th-best tight end in the 2026 recruiting class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.

Quote Of The Day

“I like the life after football part and how many defensive linemen they produce. I could see myself being one of those next top defensive linemen at Michigan. I see myself as a rush end. That’s one of the top programs to go to if you’re a defensive lineman. You can’t beat it.”
