NC State’s Austin Herbert brings reliable leg strength and veteran special-teams polish
Austin Herbert is an older, proven NC State specialist whose value is rooted in consistency, field position, and experience rather than flash. In the 2003 season, he averaged 42.7 yards per punt and finished his Wolfpack career with 226 punts and 8,992 punting yards, which shows a durable, high-volume leg that coaches can trust in tight games. He also handled kicking duties, adding versatility and game-day utility. If your team wants a steady, battle-tested punter with a strong academic and leadership reputation, Herbert fits the bill.
