02Scheme fit
Ideal system
The Falcons traditionally employ a standard punting scheme, prioritizing hangtime and directional control within a conventional four-man protection unit.
Directional PunterPunterKickoff specialist
Best role
Initially a reliable directional punter and kickoff specialist, with the potential to develop into a consistent high-hangtime weapon.
Wrong fit
A scheme that frequently calls for rugby-style punts or relies heavily on a punter's athletic ability to escape pressure, as this is not his strong suit.
His physical stature is standard for the position and aligns with traditional punting requirements for leg strength and control.
