Zach Benedict brings kickoff range and roster stability to MTSU
Zach Benedict’s most recent season profile at Middle Tennessee shows a kickoff specialist with real field-position value, averaging 56.7 yards on 31 kickoffs in the 2025 season and producing six touchbacks, which is the kind of hidden-yardage impact coaches love[1][6]. At 6-foot-0 and 213 pounds, he brings a sturdy build and a straightforward specialty-game role, and his current roster standing suggests he’s a dependable depth piece rather than a splashy stat-sheet star[1][3]. If a team wants a kicker who can tilt kickoff battles and handle pressure without a lot of drama, Benedict fits the bill[1][5].
