Cal’s dual-role kicker with real leg strength and upside
Erik Peters is a redshirt freshman placekicker/punter at California who didn’t see game action in 2025, but he arrives with clear specialist upside: Cal lists him at 6-foot-1, 195 pounds, and local coverage noted a 49-yard high school long plus the unusual bonus that he hadn’t punted before Berkeley. EA Sports College Football 26 also gives him a respectable 65 overall with an 86 kick power rating, which fits the profile of a developmental leg with tools. If you need a young, versatile special-teams piece, Peters looks like a worthwhile upside swing.
