As per reports, Colston Loveland is listed as questionable to face Washington in Week 6. However, there are suggestions that he will suit up for Michigan in Saturday's game.

Loveland has reportedly been dealing with a shoulder injury that he suffered against Arkansas State in Week 3. The tight end was subsequently ruled out for the matchup against the USC Trojans in Week 4 but he returned to action against the Minnesota Golden Gophers in Week 5.

For this week, there have been no updates on Loveland's injury, suggesting that he should get the green light to feature against the Huskies on Saturday.

In four appearances this season, Loveland has recorded 228 yards on 23 receptions and caught one touchdown. The junior, who has been with Michigan since 2022, has become an integral part of the team's offense.

Loveland was part of the Michigan team that won the national championship last season, when the Wolverines beat the Huskies in the title game. He recorded 64 yards on three receptions to help Michigan to a 34-13 win in the final.

Loveland will look to contribute again for Michigan in Week 6 against the same opponent.
