Ohio State’s high-variance punter with big-leg upside but limited consistency
Thoma’s profile is built around raw punting talent and game-to-game volatility: ESPN lists him with 61 career punts, a 37.2-yard average, a 55-yard long, and 0 punts inside the 20, which suggests he can flip the field but has not yet been a consistently reliable placement punter[5]. He is the kind of specialist you care about if you want leg strength and room for development, but his fit is best for a staff willing to coach consistency, hang time, and directional control rather than expecting polished, high-end precision right away[5][7].
