Long snapper recovering muffed punt?

How did long snapper, Slade Roy get down field fast enough to recover the muffed punt. I was under the impression that only the gunners could leave on the snap

No one blocked him. He had a straight run to the player and made a great play.
Helped the punt had great hang time.

Clearly that was the turning point of the game. It may be that we look back at the end of the year and say it as the turning point of the season.

Well long snappers get down their as quickly as the gunners on our special team designs. Great jog by him, though.

Pretty sure the defense cannot line anyone up directly over the center so he typically has a free release off the line.

Free release
Avoid blocker(s)
Shorter path than gunners on a middle punt
Lots of punt tackles made by long snappers
Not many muffs (usually), so much fewer opportunities to make a big play on those

Gunners only is an nfl rule i believe.
Long snappers are consistently one of the first downfield.

He loves muff!…who doesn’t?

That's normal when the guy is pretty athletic. No one lines up in front of him like some of the other posters have mentioned.

I love the p-lay and the DESIRE in such a football player 
Question though...anyone else think he was within the 3' rule a moment before the ball came down? It looked like he was in it and then stepped out. Obviously, I'm glad it wasn't called but wondering what some of you think about it.

Center and gunners are the only ones who release on the snap. They are usually the first ones down field

There is no halo rule anymore in college football.

Snapper can leave with the gunners
Posted on 9/18/22 at 7:49 pm to Bengaldean
Long snappers usually are one of the first ones down there. No one can touch them so they have a free shot to get down there.

Hell he was in the returners face about 2 seconds before the returner muffed it, he moved out the way right as the ball came into the returners hands… it was well played
