ASU Transfer Jesus Gomez: Long-Arm Kicker with CFL Draft pedigree solves kicking woes
Jesus Gomez, a senior kicker from Puebla, Mexico, immediately stabilized Arizona State’s special teams after transferring from Eastern Michigan, connecting on 22 of 30 field goals (73.3%) in the 2025 season with six from 50+ yards, including a career-long 57-yarder. His differentiator is elite long-range accuracy and clutch reliability—he hit a game-winning 39-yarder as time expired and earned Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week twice in one season. Gomez is a mechanical engineering major with a calm, intense personality under pressure, having gone 11-14 on FGs and 15-15 on XP in his final ASU stretch. He declared for the 2026 NFL Draft and was selected 3rd overall in the 1st round by the Edmonton Elks in the CFL, proving he’s a proven winner at the highest levels. For any team needing a reliable, long-distance kicker with playoff-intensity DNA, Gomez is an elite fit.
