1974 Profile: Julian Fagan

Punter
No. 10
Mississippi
"Beset with problems last year as the Jets regular punter, Fagan had two blocked and finished up with a 37.1 average on 74 kicks. He replaced Steve O'Neal, who had been the Jets punter for three seasons.
Over his four-year career, opponents have returned his punts for only an 8.8 average. Julian has a career punting average of 40.5 and has been a very busy punter throughout his tenure, booting over 70 kicks each season. With the Saints he once kicked nine times in one game.
Originally a 17th round choice of Houston in 1970, Julian joined New Orleans that year on waivers. He came to the Jets with Margene Adkins in a trade with the Saints in June 1973.
Julian holds a BA from Ole Miss and practices law in the off-season. His hometown is Laurel, Mississippi."
