Purdue’s backup kicker in a wide-open specialist battle
In the 2026 season, Jack Weeter is a junior kicker at Purdue who has yet to appear in a game, but he remains in the mix during a three-way kicking competition and brings an academic distinction as a 2025 Academic All-Big Ten selection.[1][11] The big takeaway: he’s a developmental specialist with a clean roster profile and upside if Purdue wants a steady, homegrown option, but the lack of college game reps means he’s more projection than proven commodity right now.[1][11]
