Just five days before the season opener, Arizona State’s kicking situation just became a lot clearer. Former Sun Devil Christian Zendejas, who was in the transfer portal, announced Saturday that he will be returning to the program via his Instagram page.
Following Zendejas’ entrance into the portal in January, it was assumed that Logan Tyler would serve as the team’s place kicker. Although things were shaken up with the departure of Michael Turk, Zendejas’ presence will surely calm the nerves of Herm Edwards, who has mentioned the importance of the kicking game when discussing the uncertainty at the position during preseason practice.
