GREEN BAY – Hunter Bradley was no more than 10 years old the first time his father, Mike, took him to the backyard and taught him the art of long snapping.
A former long snapper himself at Delta State, Mike knew Hunter had athletic talent at an early age. He had tremendous range as a shortstop for a kid his size and could play practically any position on a football field.
Still, even when it looked like Hunter had the potential to be a scholarship tight end in the Southeastern Conference, Mike kept the idea of snapping planted in the back of his son’s mind.
