Senior Special Teams Captain with Elite 41.4 YPA Punting and 63-Yard Long
Charlie Durkin, Kent State's 2025 Senior Special Teams Captain, delivers elite punting with a 41.4-yard average and a 63-yard season long, differentiating himself through explosive range and consistent inside-20 placement (14 times). As a 5-star recruit from Akron, OH, he brings unmatched intensity and leadership, having earned captaincy despite a 2024 season where he didn't see action. His personality is marked by fierce competitiveness and reliability under pressure, making him a perfect fit for teams needing a high-intensity punter who can shift field position instantly. Durkin's injury history is minimal, and his 6'0", 190-lb frame ensures durability. Why care? He's a game-changer who turns punts into strategic advantages, and his captain status proves he's a team-first leader ready to elevate any roster.
