Michigan sophomore quarterback Bryce Underwood, running back Jordan Marshall, safety Rod Moore and defensive tackle Trey Pierce are the Wolverines captains this season after a vote by the team.
Underwood, who started last year as a freshman, is the Wolverines’ first sophomore to be voted captain, and Marshall the first junior — both represent the offense. Moore is a three-time captain, and this is the first time Pierce has been voted captain.
The captains were announced Monday night. Michigan is in preseason camp preparing for the season which opens Sept. 5 against Western Michigan.
Head coach Kyle Whittingham also announced the Leadership Council, which also was voted on by the players. The team captains and these 12 players are on the leadership council: safety Nico Andrighetto, cornerback Zeke Berry, linebacker Troy Bowles, defensive ends Cam Brandt and John Henry Daley, receivers Andrew Marsh and J.J. Buchanan, defensive tackle Enow Etta and offensive linemen Blake Frazier, Jake Guarnera and Andrew Sprague, and cornerback Jyaire Hill.
