For the first time since 2015, the Pittsburgh Steelers have a new punter. Jordan Berry was clearly never an All-Star. But he wasn’t quite the embarrassment a portion of the fanbase made him out to be. He was average, probably a little below, but did relatively well the things the Steelers care about. Notably, hangtimes and directional punting.
So is Dustin Colquitt any better?
The numbers say yes.
The tables below highlight some key numbers. Opponent return average (and rank) and net average (and rank). Punting isn’t about gross average. Far from it. Just in the way a business isn’t about gross income.
