2022 College Punts Downed Leaders

A downed punt is one a member of the kicking team stops or touches to keep it from rolling into the end zone.

It is a coverage and control stat as much as a leg stat. In 2022, Adam Korsak (21) led college football punters in punts downed, ahead of Ethan Duane (17) and Paddy Turner (17). 164 punters qualify.
