. The Redskins may be having a rebuilding season, but there are still some seniors to know in their program. Connard lacks the ideal size for the position, but is worthy of some small college and Sprint Football looks. He’ll have the athleticism to cover punts and can excel in that phase of the position, and he is getting reps at 15-yard snaps in high school. Snap speed looks good on film, and Connard can continue developing his body to get the needed size for the small college level.

. He’s someone who small colleges or sprint football programs will want to know this season. Connard is one of the few 2026 long snappers who has produced game film to date for colleges to evaluate him, which can be seen below. Size will be his biggest obstacle as a prospect, with more punt snap opportunities likely coming in 2025 after losing most of their offensive weapons from last season.
