Tuesday morning saw one Michigan football star in junior defensive tackle Mason Graham opting to forgo his final year of eligibility to declare for the NFL draft. Decisions are apparently coming in hot and heavy as junior kicker Dominic Zvada made known his choice for next season on Tuesday afternoon.
Though elite kickers are rare and Zvada absolutely could be an NFL draft pick this April, Sherrone Moore had noted last week that he hoped that he could hold on to the Arkansas State transfer for another year. It turns out Moore is getting his wish as Zvada announced that he will be returning for his senior season.

Zvada was clutch in 2024, having made 17 of 18 kicks in 2024. If it weren’t for Zvada’s big leg, the Wolverines wouldn’t have been able to beat Ohio State in November, as his two big kicks in Columbus were the difference. Clutch from even beyond 50, having Zvada back for another year is huge for the Wolverines, who look to rebuild in Sherrone Moore’s second year at the helm.
