Scouting Report
Skilled and versatile kicking the ball: able to handle punts, field goal attempts, and kickoffs well. Uses his left foot, which can create tough angles and spins for returners. Does a nice job of keeping his punts within the opposing 20-yard line. Not nearly as proficient at kicking field goals as he is at punts and kickoffs, and shows significantly more power and range as a punter than as a place-kicker.
Long Range Potential: Good punter with some kicking versatility.
