A couple of observations.

First, he appears to be a complete place kicker.

Second, he can even tackle.

Third, a question, did they find the ball after PATs? He gets a lot of height on his kicks.

He has a very unorthodoxed field goal kicking style. I thought it looked weird watching the first fgs, and then I checked it against other video. Most field goal kickers take one more step than he does. He is one step, kick. What ever works for you, just found that interesting. THat also means that he should be getting the kick off that much faster compared to other kickers so it seems that the possibility of being blocked would be less.

It also seems he gets early heighth faster. If so, then it should avoid blocked kicks.

He was good enough to hit a 52yarder. Not shabby.
