New Orleans Saints have signed Vanderbilt Commodores punter Matt Hayball to a deal as an undrafted free agent, according to a report by Tom Pelissero. Hayball is an Australian-born player.

Matt Hayball started his career with the FAU Owls. He spent three seasons in Boca Raton before he transferred to Vanderbilt for his final two college seasons.

For his career, Matt Hayball averaged 45.2 yards per punt on 289 career punts. He's also done a good enough job tackling when needed, making 10 and carrying the ball four times for 42 career yards.

Statistically, 2023 was Matt Hayball's best season, punting 57 times for an average of 47.6 yards per punt. That was good enough to be named a Second Team All-American and was a Ray Guy Award finalist. On top of that, he was a First Team All-SEC selection as a punter.

Matt Hayball is a native of Australia and came out of ProKick Australia.

Hayball had plenty of opportunities to punt and gain experience in the SEC.

NCAA's all-time leader in punting yardage.
