Memphis’ kicking depth piece with upside, but limited on-field resume
In the 2026 season, Oliver Castaneda is a redshirt sophomore kicker at Memphis who has yet to produce game stats, so the read is all projection for now. He’s a compact 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-9 specialist with a power-oriented profile that showed up in offseason ratings, but current depth-chart listings and season notes suggest he is still behind established options and has battled an undisclosed injury/availability issue in 2025. Translation: intriguing leg, little tape, and not yet a plug-and-play answer if you need certainty.
