Purdue Football Player Countdown: #19 Brooks Cormier & Jack Albers
Last season Purdue saw a number of true freshmen see the field, and one of them is today’s first featured player.
Tuscaloosa, AL (American Christian Academy)

Punter
2020 Projection: Starter at Punter
Once again, Purdue topped Nick Saban by pulling a punter out from under his nose in the 2019 class. With Joe “The Show” Schopper graduating following the 2018 season we needed a new punter, so Cormier got the scholarship. Last season was a bit of a rough debut for him though. He split time with walk-on Zac Collins and averaged 40.2 yards per punt on 28 kicks. Six of his kicks were downed inside the 20.
