Well, that one punter does/did, but that was a grandfather clause (like Craig MacTavish, who continued to play without a helmet); unfortunately, new punters have to wear the new helmets.
But, hey, I wouldn't mind being Josh Miller, either--$810K for a few kicks and holding for the Ghost; better still, every now and then, Belichick will pull a trick play and save me the work. Better still, if the O's clicking on all cylinders, all I have to do is hold, and I still get $50K a week.
[Although, come to think of it, I'd be afraid of an errant kick whacking my hand while holding. . . .]
