Louisville’s **high-upside kicker** with proven accuracy at the college level
Ryan Payne is a Louisville placekicker with a solid all-around profile: he has converted **95.0% of his extra points** and **57.9% of his field goals** in college, with a long of **42 yards** and **71 career points**[1][2]. His differentiator is reliability on routine kicks and enough leg to be a dependable special-teams option, which matters for close-game value even when the box score is quiet[1][2]. Louisville’s roster page lists no current stats for him, so his immediate role and usage may be limited or in transition[7].
