The Big Ten announced which players from each team will be available at the conference's media days on July 23 and 24 in Chicago.
Michigan will be represented by fifth-year senior defensive end Chase Winovich, senior running back Karan Higdon and senior safety Tyree Kinnel.
Winovich had a monster break out season in 2017, recording 79 tackles, 18 tackles for loss and eight sacks. Kinnel tallied 70 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, one sack and two interceptions.
Higdon, who seized the starting job part way through last season, fell just short of 1,000 yards, finishing with 994 and 11 touchdowns.
All three players seem to enjoy talking to the media — especially Winovich, who is always prepped with quotes and is enthusiastic with journalists.
Last year, Michigan sent Mason Cole, Mike McCray and Maurice "Mo" Hurst.
