Ryan Eckley Michigan State Michigan

It’s been a wild season for Michigan State football, but one of the bright spots has been with the kicking and punting units. In particular, Ryan Eckley, who has had to fill the big cleats of Bryce Baringer, has been one of the best punters in the Big Ten conference this year.

For his efforts, Eckley has been named to the Ray Guy Award’s final watchlist of the 2023 season.
