The Denver Broncos’ offense has been terrible in the first quarter-plus in the Week 10 game against the Las Vegas Raiders, but their punter isn’t doing them any favors, either.
It’s bad enough when an offense struggles like Denver’s is on Thursday night, but when the punter struggles as well, it only makes things more difficult when it comes to the field position battle.
That’s exactly the issue the Broncos have going on in Week 10 against the Raiders, as their punter is struggling mightily.
Who is the Broncos’ punter?
Denver’s punter is rookie Jeremy Crawshaw, who the team actually drafted in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL draft. Yes, it’s pretty rare for teams to draft a punter, which means the Broncos thought highly of him.
Crawshaw played his college ball at Florida and averaged a solid 46.4 yards per attempt over five years.
The rookie had been having a strong season before his struggles in Week 10, as he was averaging 48.6 yards per punt, which ranked 11th in the NFL. His 41.7 net yards per punt ranks 17th and he leads the league in punts inside the 20 (20).
It’s hard to not feel bad for the young punter, as he’s clearly feeling the pressure of a primetime game with millions of eyes on him.
