Greg Zuerlein

What draws me to Greg Zuerlein is the quiet brutality of his job. A placekicker carries the whole stadium's nerves in a single swing of the leg, and he did it for years across the Rams and Cowboys. I respect that he climbed from unglamorous programs at Nebraska-Omaha and Missouri Western rather than a blue-blood pipeline. There's something I find genuinely admirable about an athlete who thrives in pure pressure with almost no margin for error. Kickers rarely get the spotlight, but in my book the man who calmly decides games from the edge of the roster deserves real applause.
