Michigan safety R.J. Moten made an incredible interception that he tipped to himself and caught. He takes us ‘inside the play.’

After his 30-carry, 243-yard and 2-touchdown performance in a 34-27 win over Maryland, Michigan running back Blake Corum joined Jon Jansen on the In The Trenches podcast to break down some of his biggest plays of the game.

Former Michigan defensive end Brandon Graham registered 2.5 sacks against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. He was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week.

Graham finished with 6 tackles, 2.5 sacks and 2 stops for loss. The 34-year-old has 3 sacks through three games, matching the best start to a season in his career.

After the win over the division rival, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni raved about the former Michigan defensive end and another veteran on the defensive line, Fletcher Cox, who recorded 1.5 sacks.

“These guys, they know what it takes to get to the top of the mountain,” Sirianni said. “They’ve done it. They’ve walked to the top of the mountain. They’ve had the long journey to the top of the mountain, planted that Eagles flag on top of the mountain and won a world championship. They know what it takes to do that.

“You can see how much it means to them that they have that ‘C’ on their chest, that they have that captain on their chest. “B.G.’s constant energy of how happy he is to be there every day, and he doesn’t take a day for granted, he works like crazy every single day, worked like crazy to get back from his injury.”

Five-star athlete Nyckoles Harbor enjoyed his Michigan official visit over the weekend.

Quote Of The Day

“We just love everything about J.J. and the way he goes about it, and there are so many things we can fix and work on. So we come away from it [that] even when he did make mistakes, we’re encouraged, because you can see it’s all fixable stuff. Really, it just comes down to coaching more than anything else. If he’s making mistakes, we’re not doing the right thing, and that’s on us as coaches. So, we’re really encouraged by his first full game … we were happy with it.”
