Harrison Butker, K, Georgia Tech
6’4” 199 lbs
He wore #87 as a kicker.
Player Draft Profile
Butker is the all-time leading scorer from my alma mater Georgia Tech so I have some first hand experience watching Butker for four seasons. He has a huge leg, driving kick offs out of the end zone on a consistent basis. Maybe not quite as often as Gano but a lot.
Butker is a clutch kicker as well, nailing several game winners in his days. He can hit from distance as well.
How the Player Fits in Carolina
He will compete with starter Graham Gano and I think he has a legit shot at the job.
Highlight Video
This first he hits a 53 yard FG against our bitter rival Georgia to send the game into OT. We would go on to win the game.
Here’s another one. Coming out of HS Butker was the top kicker prospect in the country.
