Michigan EDGE Chase Winovich Contextualization: College Career Key Defensive Plays

Michigan edge rusher Chase Winovich is likely a player we’ll be discussing quite a bit as a possible 2019 NFL Draft selection of the Pittsburgh Steelers for the next several weeks as he’s already been linked to the team in several mock drafts. That will likely continue to happen the next several weeks following Winovich reportedly having dinner with members of the Steelers organization ahead of his Michigan pro day. With our draft profile of Winovich still forthcoming on the site, a few readers are wanting to see more about the plays he made during his college career at Michigan.

In an effort to provide you as much information as possible when it comes to several top players in the 2019 draft class, I am currently putting together as many contextualization posts as I can between now and the end of April and especially when it comes to players who the Steelers might select in the various rounds. In this post, we’ll contextualize the defensive plays made by Winovich during his college career and specifically those that included him registering ether a tackle for loss, a sack, a pass defensed, an interception, or a forced fumble.

Winovich registered 18 total sacks in the 44 games that he played in at Michigan dating back to 2015 and 44.5 total tackles that resulted in lost yardage. He also registered one pass breakup to go along with 3 total forced fumbles. I was able to track down all of these 57 plays that he made and they are contextualized for you in the table below and in order. Each play is linked to a video of it on Youtube.
