2018 NFL Punts Inside the 10 Leaders

Punts whose final resting spot, after any return, was inside the receiving team's own 10. These are the best results a punt can have short of a turnover.

A count, so it rewards volume and good field position. See the inside-the-20 percentage for efficiency. In 2018, Brett Kern (17) led NFL punters in punts inside the 10, ahead of Trevor Daniel (15) and Tress Way (15). 36 punters qualify.
