Wisconsin’s freshman punter waiting in the wings
Freshman Will Kelly is a Madison native and Edgewood product who joined Wisconsin in 2026, but he’s still listed low on the Badgers’ depth chart and has no meaningful college stat line yet. The appeal is the long-term upside: a local kid with punter-specific size and a clean runway to develop in a Big Ten program. Right now, he looks more like a project than an immediate impact specialist, so he’s a fit if you want patience, upside, and homegrown pedigree—not instant production.
