Notre Dame’s Big-Leg Punter with Elite Hang Time
Rendell has been a high-end weapon for Notre Dame, punting 50 times for 2,091 yards in the 2024 season and averaging 41.8 yards per punt, while placing 24 kicks inside the 20 and uncorking a career-long 64-yarder; he also showed strong big-game composure in the playoff run. His differentiators are size, power, and hang time—multiple reports describe him as a 6-foot-6 Australian punter nicknamed “Thor” with punts that can climb above five seconds in the air, making him especially valuable for field position and hidden yards.
