Souza also took on the punting duties for the Panthers and averaged 35.3 yards per punt. On the season the young man from Deerfield Beach,Florida was a dual threat with his leg and answered the call every time he was needed. Jefferson had two games with over 240 yards punting and one game where he placed the ball inside the opponents 20 yard line three times (Bowie State 10/26/19).
