2025 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 2025, Grayson Miller (5) led college football punters in punts downed, ahead of Blake Doud (5) and Bronson Long (3). 45 punters qualify.
