"We are very happy to have Eric on board with us this season. The kicking is such an important part of the game and we have been blessed the past few years with a great duo in Jeremy Ditzler and Noah Ackerman. Ackerman has moved and left a void. We feel Eric will fill that void for us. He has excelled at a very high level in college and professionally. 

He has not missed a workout yet.  He has a great team first attitude and has looked very good kicking thus far during pre season sessions. We are blessed to have him on board and we are expecting a great season from him in 2021."-Director of Operations Paul Pennington.
