Tyler Gaus brings booming leg, old-school consistency for New Mexico
Tyler Gaus has been a reliable field-flipping punter for New Mexico, with ESPN listing him at 126 career punts and a 40.4-yard average in the 2026 season context. His calling card is placement and control as much as distance: New Mexico’s own coverage of him highlights repeated punts inside the 20 and award recognition for special-teams impact. If a team wants a punter who can win the hidden-yardage battle and handle pressure without drama, Gaus is the kind of steady fit that quietly changes games.
