The punter briefly played for the Buffalo Bills in the 2022 preseason. The rookie quickly caught the eye of fans when he boomed an 82-yard punt against the Indianapolis Colts. Given that a touchback is typically followed by a 75-yard field goal, the punt was impressive to most, to put it mildly.

This led to fans calling him "punt god." However, it wasn't the only such punt he's hit in his career. In his final year of college, He had at least five punts of at least 70 yards and two of at least 80 yards, including an 86-yard punt, according to the Aztec's website.

The Bills severed ties with him after the allegations surfaced in the late summer of this year. However, now that he has been cleared of all charges, the punter expects to be back in the running to start his NFL career.
