Former Michigan Athlete of the Week: Taylor Lewan

Taylor Lewan (#77)

Despite losing 34-26 to the Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans offensive tackle Taylor Lewan had an exciting day with his first NFL touchdown. On a tackle-eligible play, he caught a pass from Marcus Mariota and ran into the end zone (LINK since embedding is unavailable). Dedicated Michigan fans, though, may remember that Lewan scored a touchdown in a Michigan uniform, too, when he recovered a Denard Robinson fumble in the end zone:
