steady Wagner leg with veteran poise and kickoff value
In the 2011 season, Mark Mangion was a strong-legged Wagner placekicker who also handled kickoff duty and stepped into the starting role when needed, giving the Seahawks reliable depth and composure under pressure. He connected on a 29-yard field goal to help build a halftime cushion and went 3-for-3 on extra points in a game where Wagner used him as the primary kicker. The standout trait here is trust: he’s the kind of veteran specialist coaches lean on when injuries hit and field-position matters, which makes him a practical fit for a team needing stability on special teams.
