Vikings signed Georgia P Brett Thorson.

25 April 2026

Thorson (6’1/237) grew up playing Australian football in Melbourne, Australia. He attended ProKick Academy — a developmental program for Australians looking to punt in college football and eventually the pros — but never played organized football before joining Georgia. He earned the starting role as a freshman in 2022 and held it for four years. Thorson was a Ray Guy finalist in 2024 and won the nation’s top punter award in 2025. He has enough leg to hit bombs and also brings some finesse to the table, as is often the case with former Aussie rules and rugby players. He could develop into a top-end punter in the pros with more experience.
