Sam Crossan is carving out Liberty’s specialist role with punting upside
In the 2026 season, Sam Crossan is listed as a junior K/P at Liberty and appears to have emerged as a likely punter, with Liberty sources noting he has taken over those duties and team stat pages showing 4 punts for 161 yards and a 40.3-yard average through early September. He’s a big-bodied specialist at 6-3, 260, which is unusual for the position and hints at flexibility if Liberty wants a kicker-punter hybrid. Why care? He looks like a stable special-teams piece with room to become a hidden weapon if his consistency holds.
