Thomas Morstead is an asset to the New Orleans Saints. There’s just no other way to put it.
There’s a reason the Saints gave Morstead a five-year extension in the 2018 offseason. He’s one of the best in the game at flipping the field when given the opportunity. For the Saints in 2018, he just wasn’t given the opportunity all that often. Morstead kicked a career-low 43 punts (again with zero blocks against), for 1,996 total punt yards and a 46.4 average.
Morstead went on to be named Pro Football Focus’s Special Teams Player of the Year.
