INDIANAPOLIS COLTS USE FRANCHISE TAG ON PUNTER PAT MCAFEE

Posted by coltsindianapolis on March 1, 2013 – 4:54 pm

The Indianapolis Colts have designated its franchise tag on punter Pat McAfee.

“It’s an honor to know that I’ll be a member of the Indianapolis Colts for at least another year,” said McAfee. “I love the city, I love the team, and I love being a member of the community. I obviously hope to work out a long-term deal to stay here forever, but one more guaranteed year is awesome. Go Colts.

McAfee enters his fifth NFL season after being selected by the Colts in the seventh round of the 2009 NFL Draft (222nd overall). In his career (63 games), he has totaled 290 punts for a franchise record 45.5 average while adding a long kick of 66 yards, which he set in 2010. McAfee has also pinned 89 punts inside the 20-yard line as well as contributing with 123 touchbacks on kickoffs.

In 2012, McAfee set franchise single season records for punting average (48.2), net punting average (40.3), 50.0-yard average games (five) and tied the mark for punts inside the 20-yard line (26). He also established a team record for kickoff touchbacks (45) in a single season.

As a rookie in 2009, McAfee was named to the PFW/PFWA and The Sporting News NFL All-Rookie Teams.

    Love having you back, Pat. As a longtime fan of the NFL, I’ve never been excited about a punter before, but your combination of personality and ability make you someone I look forward to seeing on the field. Hopefully, you’ll be here long-term once the Colts can work out a deal. Welcome back.
