EKU’s Jacob Baker is a field-position weapon with elite leg strength
In 2024, Baker emerged as one of the FCS’s better punters, averaging 43.7 yards per punt with 17 punts of 50+ yards and 24 downed inside the 20, earning First Team All-UAC honors and a 2025 FCS Punter of the Year watchlist nod. His calling card is a rare blend of power and placement: he can flip the field, pin opponents deep, and handle high-leverage situations. At 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds, he brings pro-style size and dependable kicking traits that make him an immediate fit for teams prioritizing hidden-yardage wins.[3][5][9]
