Generously listed at 6-feet tall and 163-pounds, Westin Graves can easily blend into a crowd. The sophomore kicker can probably easily navigate the Mississippi State campus or go grocery shopping without having to satisfy autograph requests or take selfies with fans.
While Graves’ appearance might not be much different than your average 21-year-old, strap a helmet and pads on him and, so far this year, he’s been anything but typical.
Five times Graves has trotted on to the field for a field goal try this year. All five times, he’s drilled them. At Southern Miss in the season opener, Graves hit field goals of 38 and 37 yards.
