Samuel Kline brings clean-snap upside and freshman-special-teams value at North Dakota
A freshman long snapper for North Dakota in the 2026 season, Samuel Kline arrives as a sturdy 6-foot-2, 215-pound specialist with a strong prep résumé and a reputation for accuracy. At Clarinda High School, he was a four-year long snapper, earned first-team all-district honors as a senior, and was noted by Kohl’s for being very accurate at a 2025 underclassman event, which is the kind of boring-consistent excellence coaches love. He looks like a developmental fit for a program that values reliability, toughness, and low-drama special teams execution.
