Auburn’s high-upside kicker, Towns McGough, brings proven leg strength and freshman-year reliability
In his 2024 season at Auburn, Towns McGough showed real special-teams value as a true freshman, going 27-for-27 on PATs, averaging 63.5 yards on kickoffs with 44 touchbacks, and earning A-Day special teams MVP honors after hitting seven field goals including a 58-yarder. His profile is built on leg strength, range, and poise under pressure—he was a highly decorated high school kicker with a state-record six 50+ yard field goals. For a team needing a kicker with NFL-caliber distance and growth upside, he’s an intriguing fit, though his 2025 Auburn role appears limited to early-season kickoff and long-field-goal duties.[2][1]
