Fact #5: Whitehurst was vanquished by 200-pound University of Toledo grad Brett Kern.
Fact #6: Did we mention that Brett Kern is a PUNTER?!
Fact #7: Brett Kern has one of the most unassuming and least intimidating bios you’ll ever read for an NFL player.
Fact #8: Despite the obvious desire to mock a punter, we’re not gonna bag on Kern because he actually WON the contest.
Fact #9: Charlie Whitehurst lost the number he’d worn for 13 years — to a punter.
