Magnus Haines is quietly becoming an Ohio field-position weapon
In the 2025 season, Ohio punter Magnus Haines appeared in all 13 games and averaged 42.3 yards on 40 punts, with a career-long 68-yarder and 13 punts inside the 20, while Ohio’s 2026 Nebraska box score shows he opened the year with a strong 45.2-yard average and a 53-yard long kick. He looks like a reliable, NFL-leaning leg: efficient, capable of flipping the field, and steady under volume rather than flashy. If your team values hidden-yardage specialists with proven consistency, Haines is absolutely worth a look.
