elite-leg punter, NFL-level weapon, and Georgia’s hidden field-position cheat code
In the 2024 season, Brett Thorson was one of Georgia’s biggest field-position assets: he averaged 46.0 yards per punt, placed 17 punts inside the 20, and produced 18 fair catches while giving up just 3 touchbacks, a profile that screams control and consistency. He also earned major national recognition as a Ray Guy Award finalist and was viewed by evaluators as an NFL-caliber punter with strong hang time and directional command. The only real caution flag is durability: a knee injury in late 2024 sidelined him, so a team wants the upside, but has to check the medical box first.
