have you ever long snapped? It’s more difficult than it seems and when you are consistently good add it, you’re gonna stick around.

it may only be 10 snaps a game, but think how important those snaps are.
I agree it’s important and I take for granted this guy can snap the s**t out of the ball (probably even under center too but we may never know).

This is the job for kids who want to make money but only sparingly play with minimal impact. Kicker, punter, and long snapper.


Curious, why list him as TE though? Both NFL and college.
 
I swear he has been on the team since 2000, it feels like i had been cuting him in madden 2 start every season as long as i can remember lol. I thought of getting a Jersey of his in highschool cause i thought it was so funny.
To be honest, I didn’t know he started in 2012 til I looked him up.
He gets about 150 snaps per season x 7 seasons now. He just broke 1000 plays. Only 1 was with the offense. Every other snap he’s been on the field for is ST.
 
So much luck involved for successful onside kicks. The way the ball bounces, who gets blocked, does the receiving team muff it.

The 2 videos I watched of successful onside kicks by Atl were one that no one blocked the ATL player that just ran straight to the ball while NO players just stood up there. The other looked to hit the opposing player and bounced around, which is usually the best you can hope for on an onside kick.

Point being, no matter how well it's kicked a lot has to go right to recover an onside kick so dedicating a roster spot wouldn't be worth it even if it was a play that happened more than a few times a season.

The ATL guys CANT be blocked because the NO players have to hang back to receive the ball. If you could see the first kick, the one that was called back by a penalty, you’d see it was exactly the same as the second one. Clear control by Koo to make it dribble on the ground and then pop into the air right between receiving team players. The speed of the ball was perfect to allow ATL players to get into position. 90% of onside kick attempts are too slow or too fast to reach that 10 yard mark. Koo has just exceptional ball control.

 
Unbelievable that Atl pulled that off.
Curious if NO is also just bad at onside defense but I could see an onside specialist existing but I think we just witnessed something that won’t be repeated.
3 in a row over multiple games is almost unreal but 3 back to back to back has to be lucky too.
It didnt seem like Kamara or Thomas were too eager to grab the ball knowing they were about to get destroyed.
