Matthew Martin brings steady punting to Nicholls with proven touch and placement
Matthew Martin is a dependable Nicholls punter whose value shows up in field position, not flash: at Tiffin in the 2023 season, he averaged 35.6 yards per punt with 11 punts inside the 20, and in the 2022 season he averaged 36.1 yards with 15 inside the 20. That profile says “control the game,” which is exactly what coaches want from a specialist—consistent placement, fair-catch pressure, and enough leg strength to flip the field. He looks like a fit for teams that prize reliability and hidden-yardage wins over big-risk, boom-or-bust punting.
