Baylen Woodman brings booming kickoff juice to JMU
In the 2025 season, Baylen Woodman was a kickoff weapon at Middle Tennessee, earning CUSA All-Freshman honors while handling all 12 games and piling up 32 touchbacks on 53 kickoffs; he also averaged 61.5 yards per kickoff[6]. At James Madison in 2026, that profile screams field-flipping special teams value: big-leg power, proven touchback production, and early-career consistency from a player who was ranked among the nation’s top kickers as a high school recruit[4][11]. If your team wants hidden-yardage edge with upside, he’s the kind of specialist who can quietly change field position and start drives on hard mode for the opponent[3][13].
