Former SoCon kickers Younghoe Koo (Georgia Southern) and Sam Martin (Appalachian State) took the spotlight during the 11
th week of the NFL season, as Jaquiski Tartt (Samford, 49ers), Jerrick Mckinnon (Georgia Southern, 49ers), Buster Skrine (Chattanooga, Bears), C.J Board (Chattanooga, Giants), James Bradberry (Samford, Giants) and Andre Roberts (The Citadel, Bills) all had their bye week.
Koo went 3-for-3 on field goals, placing the lone nine points on the board for Atlanta in the Falcons’ 24-9 loss to the New Orleans Saints. This week marks his third straight week making each field goal attempted, and he leads the league in number of field goals made (24). Koo’s 24 field goals include 5 from the 50+ yard range.
Martin punted three times for 156 yards in the Denver Broncos’ 20-13 win over the Miami Dolphins. Through the first 11 weeks of the 2020-21 season, Martin holds the fifth-highest gross punting average at 48.2 yards, and the fourth longest punt on the season (69 yards). Since joining the NFL in 2013, he has punted 511 times through 116 regular-season games.
Nick Williams had two assisted tackles and one pass defended during the Detroit Lions’ 20-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Williams’ swat forced a Panthers fourth down.
Former Western Carolina cornerback Keion Crossen made one solo tackle during the Texans’ 27-20 win over the New England Patriots, which moved Houston to a 3-7 record.
