Oregon kicker Henry Katleman to enter the transfer portal

One of the favorite players for the Oregon Duck fanbase is set to leave the team, as backup kicker Henry Katleman announced on Tuesday that he intends to enter the transfer portal following the 2021 season.

Katleman was a flash in the pan at Oregon, as he took over for Camden Lewis midway through the 2020 season and immediately went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts, making fans wonder why he was not the starting kicker all along.

Over the offseason, however, Lewis beat out Katleman for the starting job, and proceeded to have a very successful season where he went 12-for-15 on FG attempts, making 53-of-54 PAT’s as well. On Tuesday, Lewis was named to the Pac-12 All-Second Team list for special teams.

Katleman is obviously a talented kicker who has a spot on a college roster. It unfortunately just was not available to him at Oregon. We wish him the best going forward.
