Colts Punter Pat McAfee Snubbed from AP’s All-Pro Teams
While he made PFF’s All-Pro Team, Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee was arguably snubbed from the AP’s 2016 NFL All-Pro Team’s.
Despite leading the league in gross punting average at 49.3 yards per punt, McAfee (2 votes) was passed over on the AP’s 1st-team by Los Angeles Rams punter Johnny Hekker (42 votes) and on the 2nd-team by the Oakland Raiders Marquette King (4 votes).
It’s worth noting that Hekker was a deserving choice in his own right, as the Rams’ punter led the league with a 46.0 net yards per punt average. However, McAfee ranked just behind him with the NFL’s 3rd highest average at a 42.7 net yards per punt average.
