The Eagles, Commanders, Falcons and 49ers have shown “extensive interest” in Houston K Ethan Sanchez.

02 April 2026

Sanchez was a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award last year, which is given to college football’s top kicker. He recently had an hour-long phone call with the Eagles and also met with them privately after Houston’s Pro Day. Sanchez is scheduled to attend the Falcons’ local day as well. He spent his first three college seasons kicking for Old Dominion and spent his fourth and final college season at Houston. He converted 20-of-25 field goals during the regular season and 38-of-38 extra point attempts. He could be K1-viable as a rookie via any one of these four potential landing spots.
