A double-duty kicker with enough leg strength to make it at the next level, Folk must improve his overall consistency to have a shot at making an active roster.


Biography:

Handled the full-time kicking and punting duties last season, winning All-Conference honors. Connected on 75% of his field goals last year with a long of 52 yards. Averaged 44 yards on 74 punts, including a long of 78 yards.

Pos:

Strong-legged kicker with an inconsistent game. Drives punts down field, kicks moon shots that get great hang time, and gives coverage teams an opportunity to make plays downfield. Consistent field goal kicker inside 40 yards.

Neg:

Struggles when rushed as a punter and does not quickly get the ball off his foot. Has difficulty with directional kicking and is not effective as a pooch punter. Kickoffs do not get great height.
