Toledo’s Anthony Ruggles brings a live leg and hidden upside
Anthony Ruggles enters the 2026 season as a 5-foot-9, 170-pound redshirt freshman kicker/punter for Toledo who already drew praise for having a strong leg and looking good in spring ball, though he was limited by injury rehab.[1][11][13] His high school résumé included 51-yard field goals and 42.4-yard punting average, hinting at real dual-role value, and Toledo’s staff seems comfortable developing him rather than rushing him.[4][11] He looks like a fit for teams that value leg strength, versatility, and long-term upside over instant plug-and-play certainty.[1][4][11]
