One of the best punters in the NFL has spent a large part of his offseason working on holding.
Pro Bowl punter Jack Fox said on Day 2 of Detroit Lions minicamp Wednesday that he changed his holding stance this spring to hold kicks from more of a side angle.
“I think I’ve gotten to be a better holder so far, especially being here the last couple weeks, getting a lot of snaps,” Fox said. “Having two kickers and two snappers (in camp), I’m getting a lot of work at holding.”
Last year, Fox said he held for kicks from an open stance, which positioned him more behind the ball.
