vmax Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Nice article by Eisenberg on Koch... instead of seeing how much the market might bear for his varied services (he also holds on kicks), Koch agreed to re-up with the only team he has ever played for; a team on which he is a popular and respected locker room elder and holder of franchise records for gross punting average (45.0), net average (39.0) and career total of punts downed inside the 20-yard line (251).Although Koch’s new salary average of $3.25 million per year only ranks seventh among punters, according to ESPN, he’s still among the league’s best-paid players at his position. And now, he is set up to finish his career where he started it, as one of the few “Ravens lifers” along with Jonathan Ogden, Ray Lewis and possibly Terrell Suggs.That’s a win for Koch, I would say.Sure, he could have gone to another team, but he’s comfortable and appreciated in Baltimore, and as he said Thursday, “It has always been my idea that I’ll be a Raven for life.” http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Eisenberg-Under-The-Radar-Sam-Koch-Signing-Is-A-Win-Win/d5468c50-4d6c-4396-81f7-15171f8baa30 I kick... I hold.... I run.... I also fake punts and run away... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
