We here at For The Win love us some Johnny Hekker, as does — I hope! — the rest of the NFL world.
The Los Angeles Rams punter is the most fun, whether he’s pulling off no-look holds during field goals, booting epic punts in the Super Bowl or calling for boycotts of RedZone.
On Monday night, in the Rams’ win over the Chicago Bears, he had himself an incredible night thanks to his punting, so much so that the NFL put together a highlight reel, which includes lots of fawning from the broadcast over his technique and ability to pin the struggling Bears’ offense deep:

Hekker isn’t a punter. He’s a punting god. And all celebrations from his Rams’ teammates are completely justified. He’s a true game-changer.
