Big-boot Illinois punter with proven Big Ten pedigree
Weatherford built his Illinois reputation as a high-end leg with national attention: in the 2005 season, he averaged 42.6 yards per punt, earned Second Team All-Big Ten honors, and was an Honorable Mention All-America selection, with 16 punts pinned inside the 20. He stands out for hang time, field-position impact, and a repeatable, pro-ready punting style that made him one of the best punters in Illinois history. If you need a swing-the-field specialist who can flip hidden yardage, he’s the kind of punter you actually care about.
