Ricardo Chavez is Idaho’s dual-threat weapon with big-leg range and clutch value
In the 2023 season, Ricardo Chavez emerged as one of Idaho’s most valuable special-teams pieces, going 19-for-24 on field goals, 39-for-41 on extra points, and adding 1,147 punting yards while handling both kicking and punting duties. He brings rare two-way special-teams utility, a proven long-range leg, and a history of big-game confidence—he was also a first-team junior-college All-American before Idaho. That combo makes him a strong fit for a team wanting a dependable, high-upside specialist who can change field position and swing close games.
