Player Story

Marshall Nichols story

Marshall Nichols built his college career from 2022 through 2025 as a punter from Atlanta, GA wearing No. 47, spending time with Georgia Tech and UNLV. The clearest part of Marshall Nichols' career was his field-position work: 197 punts, 8,861 punting yards, and 67 punts inside the 20 across 53 career games in the available record. His largest box-score season came in 2022 with UNLV. Those numbers show where he fit, how often the ball or action found him, and how his role developed over time.

Special-teams careers depend on repeatable opportunity, not just one highlight. His career also includes 69 passing yards and 1 tackle, giving the story more than a single-category snapshot. With 53 career games in the available record, his career has enough shape to show both opportunity and production across Georgia Tech and UNLV.

The arc is straightforward: Marshall Nichols moved through the depth chart, found a larger role, and turned that opportunity into production that can be understood through standard football numbers.
