“Punters are People Too” is a piece about the modern punter, a once overlooked position now filled by superb athletes - guys who can not only punt… but can throw, tackle, and pull off a fake. The piece focuses on Pat McAfee, Johnny Hekker, and Jon Ryan - 3 gentlemen who best represent this new breed of punter. All 3 are tremendous athletes, all 3 are good at fakes, and all 3 have used social media to great effect… helping to usher in a new era of punter popularity.
