Overview
- Woodson Jr., who announced his decision Friday on Instagram, became Michigan’s 10th pledge in the 2027 class after choosing the Wolverines over offers from Florida State, Oregon, Texas A&M and Ole Miss.
- Michigan’s new staff made him a priority, with Kyle Whittingham dispatching multiple assistants to Lake Nona in January and safeties coach Tyler Stockton leading the recruitment.
- The Class of 2027 prospect is rated a three-star by major services and projects to play free safety as he continues to add size.
- He logged 73 tackles, eight pass breakups, two interceptions, a fumble recovery and a kickoff return touchdown as a junior at Lake Nona High School in Orlando.
- The decision extends a notable family line in Ann Arbor, as the son of 1997 Heisman Trophy winner and Pro Football Hall of Famer Charles Woodson picks the same program.
