Louisiana Tech’s 41.3-Yard Punter with a 70-Yard Season High and Elite Distance Control
Lexington Matthews, the 6'3", 196-lb R-Jr. punter for Louisiana Tech, delivered a standout 2025 season averaging 41.33 yards per punt with 10 punts over 50 yards and a season-high 70-yard punt against Clark Atlanta. His differentiators include elite distance control, a calm under-pressure personality (nicknamed “kick-fil-a”), and a dedicated, intensity-driven approach that earned him 7 games played despite only 1 official punt attempt in advanced stats—likely due to a data lag or injury recovery. With no major injury history reported and a reputation for consistency, Matthews is a high-fit specialist for teams needing reliable long-range punting and field-position dominance.
