Ryan Switzer and the Value of a Dynamic Return Man

Posted May 29, 2014
Today we are going to look at the punt return touchdowns from North Carolina's Ryan Switzer. As a true freshman in 2013 he scored 5 touchdowns, which is the most since Hawaii's Chad Owens also scored 5 in 2004. Switzer totaled 71.9% of his yardage on these 5 runs. In fact, just these 5 runs alone would have placed Switzer in 6th place nationally for individual punt return yardage in 2013. (One Foot Down)
