The 6-1, 210-pound former sprint champ is the most versatile player in football, and he’s primed for a breakout season as the Wolverines X-factor now that "Dr. Blitz” Don Brown has come to Ann Arbor as the new DC. “He’s our best nickel guy by far. He can play linebacker. He can rush the passer. He can cover anybody,” said Jim Harbaugh. "Put him on the other side of the ball, he’d probably be our best slot receiver. He could give anybody a run for their money as our best tailback. He’s a Jim Thorpe type of guy. He’s an exciting, motivating type of guy. He’s serious about being good. He’s got a lot of fire and intensity about him and that gives him the opportunity to be really great. I’d hate to diminish anyone but off the top of my head I can’t think of anyone (in college that I’ve coached) more athletic than Jabrill.”
