Lost amongst todays mess, but we badly need a new punter

Count me as not seeing Punter as a major concern.

Twice yesterday Hedley had to choke back on punts so they weren’t touchbacks. And one travelled only like 30 yards, landing at the 10 yard line. Those hurt net average, yet are effective punts.

For the season, he’s middle of the pack on distance and Top 8 on Inside the 20 punts. He’s also done a great holding FG attempts.

Middle of the pack? He is 24th out of 29 who qualify in gross and 22nd in net. His hang time is not good. He has only had 1 of 17 punts fair caught. I would feel more comfortable with Gillikin personally and did not think he was great.

Last year, Gillikin had an off year and was 21st in gross and 13th in net. He was 4th in inside the 20 and had 25 of 77 punts fair caught (5th).
