Career highlights and awards

Cody Thomas Webster (born June 1, 1991) is a former American football punter. He played college football for the Purdue Boilermakers, where he holds the single-game average punting yards record and was the Big Ten Punter of the Year in 2013. Webster played for the Brooklyn Bolts of the Fall Experimental Football League (FXFL).

High school career

He started for the varsity football team at Central Dauphin East High School at punter, placekicker, defensive back, quarterback and wide receiver. He was a four-time first team All-Mid Penn Conference punter,[1] and a three-time all-state selection.[2] Webster committed to Purdue on October 4, 2009.[3] Once he committed, he was projected to be the most likely Boilermaker to be a true freshman starter, because starting punter Chris Summers was graduating.[4] He signed his National Letter of Intent with Purdue on February 3, 2010.[5] Upon graduating, he was considered to be the twenty-fifth best placekicker in the national high school class of 2010 by Rivals.com and the thirty-fourth best kicker by ESPN.[6][7]
