Who says a punter cannot be a hard hitter?
Whoever believes that punters cannot deliver a blow clearly forgot to inform Cameron Johnston. The former Ohio State punter and current member of the Philadelphia Eagles proved he backs down from no one during Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.
After punting to star running back Alvin Kamara, Johnston got in on covering the kick. He wrapped up Kamara and slung him over his shoulder in an impressive body slam tackle. Needless to say, you will not see many punters bring a runner down in such impressive fashion.
