Michigan football 2025 roster takeaways: Jersey number changes, weight gains and losses, more
Michigan Wolverines football released its roster ahead of the 2025 season as the team kicks off fall camp Wednesday. Here’s a look at jersey number changes, weight gains and losses and newcomer jersey numbers.
Luke Bauer not on the team
Graduate punter Luke Bauer is not listed on Michigan’s roster. The Missouri transfer was announced by the program as a new signee this spring, but he is not with the Wolverines.
Michigan senior punter Hudson Hollenbeck is in the lead for the job. Days before fall camp began, the Wolverines added Clarion (D-II) transfer Hunter Robertson.
