Michigan’s old-school TE who earned trust the hard way
Andy Mignery’s Michigan profile is that of a versatile, high-character tight end who transitioned from quarterback and earned starts late in his career, even being recognized with the team’s top student-athlete award in 2003. In the 2003 season, he shared the starting tight end job and finished with 4 catches for 48 yards and 2 touchdowns, showing more reliability and toughness than flashy volume. He stands out for adaptability, football IQ, and selfless competitiveness—the kind of player coaches love because he helps glue an offense together.
