For the better part of the last two years, Tress Way has been the NFL’s best punter. And he has finally gotten some recognition for it.
Way was named the NFC’s Special Teams Player of the Week for his performance in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers. During that contest, Way averaged 58 yards per punt, twice pinned the Panthers inside the 20, and had only one touchback.
That said, the touchback was the result of a ridiculous 79-yard punt. So, safe to say that the ‘Skins were happy with it as it flipped field position in the game and greatly benefitted the team.
