2019 NFL Punts Out of Bounds Leaders

A punt out of bounds cannot be returned and stops the clock. Punters aim for the sideline near the opponent's end zone.

Some are chosen, some are mistakes. In 2019, Brett Kern (18) led NFL punters in punts out of bounds, ahead of Jake Bailey (17) and Corey Bojorquez (15). 35 punters qualify.
