 Bolete ID or Input

Im new to hunting mushrooms, i know what i have found is a bolete but am not able to narrow it down from there, ill describe what i found and see what you guys think about it.
Habitat: Growing from pine needle covered ground, usually in areas surrounded by Jack pines, not sure if thats the official name for these pine trees.
Gills: The pores were like a pinkish color.
Stem: Whitish, quite thick and on average about 3-4 inches long.
Cap: A light to medium brown darkening towards the center, mostly a solid light colored brown though.
Flesh inside was white.
Spore print color: not sure i left them, i was just enjoying nature and saw them and ruled them to be some kind of bolete.
Bruising: None
Location: Picked in a forest in Southwest michigan.
If i was in my right mind at the time i would have checked for a volva, bitter taste, and web pattern on the stem. Im sorry for this low grade ID request haha, but i figured it might give some of you who enjoy boletes something to help me out with, i think it may possibly be a nice edible, so when i come across it again i will taste test it and take some pictures of it.

Probably a Tylopilus species!

If you want to find psilocybin in species that are not yet known to be psychoactive, you should do chemical tests. That way you won't get sick and die all the time.

It could be a young Bolete where the spores have not started to turn color. The pores on Boletes start out white or cream color and turn olive when the spores mature.
Make a spore print, Tylopilus will have a pink print. When finding Boletes always check for blue bruising and a bitter taste.
