Braden Cole brings leg strength and special-teams versatility to Davidson
In the 2022 season, Braden Cole appeared in two games for Davidson and averaged 47.3 yards per punt against Jacksonville State, flashing the kind of big-leg upside that can tilt field position in a hurry. His high school resume was strong too: as a senior at Pinecrest, he went 12-for-13 on field goals and posted a 49-yard long, which suggests a kicker with range, consistency, and confidence under pressure. If your team wants a specialist with real punting-plus-kicking value, Cole is the kind of low-drama, high-upside fit coaches love.
