PLAYER ANALYSIS
Townsend possesses natural leg strength and can get ahold of punts without seeming to exert much effort. Unfortunately, he has allowed too many return yards over the last two seasons due to a lack of hang time to distance traveled for the punt. While the leg strength is there, he'll need work on technique and operation time to close the gap between gross and net punts.
