Ryan Stonehouse went from undrafted to breaking a record more than 80 years old in his rookie season in the NFL.
The Tennessee Titans punter broke the record for single-season punting average with a mark of 53 yards per kick.
He shattered the previous record of 51.4 by Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh set in 1940.
Stonehouse was undrafted out of Colorado State where he set the NCAA career record for punt average (47.8).
He signed as a free agent with the Titans and had to beat out veteran Brett Kern, which he did during camp to win the starting job. There were four punters selected in the 2022 NFL draft, but the undrafted Stonehouse has made himself the top of the bunch.
