Jerry Fitschen brings proven kickoff leg and spot-duty scoring upside for Akron
Jerry Fitschen’s calling card at Akron has been his **leg strength** and versatility as a specialist: in the 2019 season, he handled all 12 games, kicked off 30 times for 1,711 yards (57.0 avg.), and also hit a 42-yard field goal against Illinois. Akron’s roster and game notes show he was used primarily as a kickoff/field-goal option rather than a full-time all-purpose kicker, which makes him a useful fit for teams needing a dependable specialist with proven range and game-day experience.
