Army punter drops Stanford defender, gets revenge for all other punters ever

Punters are tired of getting messed with.

Punters get a bad rap. They’re all lanky. The majority of the punter’s strength is in his kicking leg. And when they’re on a field with very strong football players, sometimes they get obliterated. (We’re looking at you, Antonio Brown Karate Kick recipient Spencer Lanning.)

But Alex Tardieu is not your average punter. He’s Army’s punter, and he is as strong as you’d expect a cadet at the United States Military Academy to be. And if you come at him with weakness, he will obliterate you:

In the still, it legitimately looks like Tardieu has delivered a knockout right cross to Kodi Whitfield, a 6'2, 204-pound safety for the Cardinals. The GIF reveals it wasn't quite as violent, but the punter really does flick aside the off-balance safety like it was nothing:

Punter hit 2

We embrace vicious punters whenever and wherever we find them. Right now the club is Tardieu and Pat McAfee.
