The San Francisco 49ers Signed a former Pittsburgh Steelers Starting Punter.
PITTSBURGH -- The San Francisco 49ers chose to sign a former Pittsburgh Steelers punter in Pressley Harvin III, according to NFL reporter Ari Meirov.Harvin played for Sumter High School in Sumter, S.C., where he played tight end and punter. He would average a punt of 42.5 yards in his senior season, earning him All-State honors.
Harvin improved in his sophomore season, but didn't punt as much in 2018. He had 35 punts for 1,447 yards, 41.3 yards per punt, and a long of 62. He had regular-season average of 44.3 yards, which would've ranked him top of the ACC and No. 16 in the nation, but his 31 punts fell just short of the 3.6 punts per game needed to qualify for the NCAA’s official statistical rankings. He still earned Second Team All-ACC honors for his efforts.
His best season came in 2020, where he had 45 punts for 2,161 yards, 48.0 per punt, and a career-long punt of 70 yards. His 48.0 yards per attempt led the nation and broke both Georgia Tech and ACC records. This earned him First Team All-ACC and unanimous All-American honors and the Ray Guy Award, recognizing the best punter in college football.
Harvin punted 70 times his rookie season for 2,982 yards, 42.6 yards per attempt, long of 64, three touchbacks and 25 punts inside the 20-yard line in 15 games. His total punts ranked eighth most, punts inside the 20-yard line ranked No. 10 and yards per punt ranked No. 33 in the NFL, respectively. He earned All-PFWA Rookie Team honors for his efforts in 2021.
