Josh Wilkins gives Youngstown State a steady leg with kickoff juice
In the 2025 season, Josh Wilkins appeared in all 13 games for Youngstown State as a kickoff specialist, delivering 89 kickoffs with 29 touchbacks and even recording two tackles on return coverage, which screams dependable, high-effort special-teams value. He’s a compact 5-foot-10, 160-pound kicker who already has game reps and versatility, and in 2026 he’s listed as a junior on the Penguins’ roster, so the appeal is experience, consistency, and toughness more than headline-grabbing flash. If your team wants a reliable specialist who shows up every week and contributes beyond just kicking, he fits the mold.
