2020 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 2020, Sam Martin (16) led NFL punters in punts out of bounds, ahead of Johnny Hekker (11) and Braden Mann (9). 34 punters qualify.
