Paul Jones gives Arkansas State a steady leg with plus-distance upside
In the 2025 season, Arkansas State’s punting operation has averaged 42.72 yards per punt through October 18, a solid indicator of field-position value for the Red Wolves[3]. Jones’ appeal is the kind coaches love: dependable hang time, enough leg to flip the field, and the unglamorous consistency that keeps a defense out of emergency mode. For a team looking for reliable special-teams execution, he looks like a fit if you want stability first and a big-boom ceiling second[3].
