Kansas kicker Owen Piepergerdes brings a massive frame and a live leg to the Jayhawks
Piepergerdes is a 6-foot-6, 255-pound Kansas kicker from Kansas City who has already shown he can handle extra-point duty and spot field-goal work, including a perfect 2022 line of 1-for-1 on field goals and 9-for-9 on PATs, followed by 6-for-6 on PATs in 2023; in 2024, Kansas listed him as having not seen game action. His appeal is obvious: uncommon size for the position, local familiarity with the program, and a developmental ceiling that could matter if Kansas wants a kicker with power, composure, and upside rather than just a short-term patch.
