Jeff Feagles started his career in 1988 with the Patriots.  Since then he has been with 5 teams and set numerous records for longevity and for punting.  At age 41, Feagles is still a weapon for the Giants.  He is still the master at the coffin corner punt.  Paired with gunner David Tyree, Feagles can get it inside the 20 on almost an punt near the 50.  But it is rare to see a punt longer than 50 yards for Feagles and he has been among the worst for net punting yards in the past two years.  He is also valuable as a holder for extra points and FG's, controlling high and low snaps very well.

Ryan Kuehl is regarded as one of the best long and short snappers in the NFL because of his consistent good snaps.  He got injured early in 07 though.

I am having some problem with the bios on the Giants site so I dont have that but someone could add it.

A decent leg, has only gone 6-11 from 50+ in his 4 years not attempting any 50+ with the Giants.  8-8 from 40-49.  A solid kicker, nothing amazing about him, not terrible.  A coach can have confidence trotting him out there for a kick under 50.  Occasionally had a touchback but not many on the year.  Bad snaps seem to rattle him as he missed on a few high snaps even though they were handled well by Feagles.  Showed his self confidence and ice water when he went out to win the conference championship from 47 yards after missing 2 earlier shorter ones.  The legend is that he went out without the nod from Coach Coughlin.
