On Saturday (May 23) evening, Hayes Fawcett of On3 reported that four-star tight end Colt Lumpris has flipped his commitment. The Lawrenceville, N.J. native originally committed to Alabama back on Dec. 9, 2025. — Hayes Fawcett (@Hayesfawcett3) May 24, 2026Lumpris is ranked as the No. 13 tight end in the country in the class of 2027 by On3, while sitting at No. 5 in the state of New Jersey.He also had offers from Ole Miss, Florida, Alabama, Ohio State and Tennessee, among others.Looking ahead, Lumpris has an official visit scheduled to Ann Arbor on June 5.Michigan tight end Marlin Klein (17) celebrates a play made by running back Jordan Marshall (23) against Ohio State during the first half at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor on Saturday, Nov. 29, 2025. | Junfu Han / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn ImagesScouting Report (via Hudson Standish, 247Sports)“High-upside two-way standout at tight end and edge rusher who could feasibly play either side of the ball at the P4 level. Verified hovering a shade over 6-foot-6, 225 pounds with long arms and massive hands. Possesses immense bulking capacity. Unique fluidity of movement for a player of his size. Lacrosse multi-sport experience clearly translates, considering his ideal short-area quickness and redirection capability. Clear red zone threat who will battle at the catch point. Growing as a pure ball tracker, but flashed plenty of positives in that regard as a junior. Can generate explosive power in the legs and plays with impressive jump timing. Primarily deployed as a slot receiver at the prep level, will need to continue improving play strength, technique, and contact courage before he's ready to give quality in-line reps. Should be viewed as an immensely high-ceiling pass catcher with an ideal blend of route-running savvy and contested catch ability. Could eventually draw looks from NFL scouts if he keeps progressing.”How He Fits at MichiganThe tight end position has been a strength of the Wolverines for a while.
