Michigan Unveils New Addition To Helmet For College Football Playoff
The Michigan Football helmet is one of the most iconic and recognizable pieces of athletic equipment anywhere in the world - and now it's getting a new addition for the college football playoff.
Dametrius “Meechie” Walker, an honorary member of team 143, died exactly one week ago after a two-year battle with bone cancer.

Meechie's presence around the football program not only had a big impact on him, it also had a big impact on the players and coaches who were fortunate enough to spend time with him.
As a way to remember his life and legacy, the Wolverines will be sporting stickers on their helmets for the College Football Playoff that honor Meechie.
