In that corner, Ian Berryman, challenger hailing from Western Carolina.
Punters are people, too. And these two just happen to share a last name. Berryman was one of two specialists signed by the organization following the draft. We profiled kicker Matthew Wright already but Berryman has his own unique path to the NFL. And to hear it from his coaches, he might stick around for longer than anyone expects.
“If he lives up to his potential, there’s no question he’ll be in an NFL camp next year,” WCU head coach Mark Speir told the Citizen Times last August.
