Background:

Will Reichard, from Hoover, Alabama, was ranked as the country’s top combination kicker/punter coming out of high school. As a freshman at Alabama, Reichard won the starting job in camp, but injuries shortened his season. In the games he played, Reichard was successful on 21 of 22 PATs and four of seven field goals. His success continued into his sophomore year, where Reichard completed all his 84 PATs and 14 field goals, becoming the only Alabama kicker ever to do so. That year he was named a finalist for the Lou Groza award and finished fifth in the nation in total points. In 2021, Reichard led the conference in points, finished fifth in the nation once again in total points scored, and made 22 of 28 field goals and 71 of 72 PATs. During his senior season, Reichard became Alabama’s all-time leader in career points, all-time leader for career PATs, and fourth all-time in career field goals. Reichard earned many accolades for his 2022 seasons, including All-American Honorable Mention by Pro Football Focus, Second Team All-SEC from both the Associated Press and coaches, and is a finalist for the 2022 Lou Groza Award.
