The Dean Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 At the moment, I'm more worried about the K holder than the punter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass punted 5 times in college and averaged a little over 48 yards per punt. He can do it. I would say it was a preseason injury concern.

Punching Bag Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 5 hours ago, Dan Darragh said: I always assumed that the K practices as a backup to the P (and vice versa). Why didn't the Bills use Bass to punt? And what made them think that Barkley would be any good at it? Maybe Barkley participated in Punt, Pass and Kick like other NFL QBs such as Jim Kelly, Troy Aikman and Dan Marino? It is a shame that NFL cancelled sponsorship of that program. Even Andy Reid participated in it. https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/buffalo-preseason-notebook-week-3-carolina-panthers-kaiir-elam-matt-barkley-matt-araiza Quote Punt, Pass, and Kick If Friday featured Matt Barkley's final hours in Buffalo, Barkley was called upon to punt four times in Friday's contest. Despite no punts to his collegiate and professional name, he performed admirably with a 40-yard average on four attempts. The second boot of that tally was a 53-yarder that set Carolina up inside its own 10. In his regular duties, Barkley made one last attempt at retaining his backup quarterback job from Case Keenum, going 9-of-13 for 100 yards.
