WATCH: Joe Gaziano shows off impressive kicking with 47-yard field goal

Northwestern DL Joe Gaziano is a man of many talents.

It is no secret Gaziano is a terror for opposing offenses to deal with. The stout defender has 31 TFL and 20 sacks in his career and can wreak havoc in the backfield.

However, what does come as a surprise is Gaziano’s kicking strength. Northwestern Football shared a video of his versatile abilities as he drilled a 47-yard field goal in practice:

His form, flexibility, and accuracy are all impressive for a player of his size. Unfortunately, it appears head coach Pat Fitzgerald was unimpressed:

Don’t even think about asking, @jgaziano97. 🙅🏻‍♂️ https://t.co/1oEux1OURU
