What They're Saying - Special Teams Coordinator Kenneth Gilstrap
“Noah is a Miami guy who lives and dies kicking. He’s been a true winner with a big leg and has unlimited potential. Noah embodies what you want from a special teams player; he works hard and really is focused on his craft. Kind of like a quarterback that possesses natural arm strength, he has that natural ‘big leg’ that you can’t teach.”
