Rubio Long Snapper Jon Weeks is Mr. Consistent

iCongratulations to Rubio Long Snapper Jon Weeks on playing in his 100th consecutive game for the Houston Texans!

Weeks is from the class of 2004 Rubio Long Snappers. He has a long journey but his incredible work ethic has really paid off. Originally came to Rubio Long Snapping and did well at a January VEGAS Event but wasn’t ready for the big time….yet.

He came back in May, was dominant, earned a scholarship to Baylor and the rest is history. Weeks is a great story because of his dedication and size. You see, Weeks is about 5’10” which is definitely not the norm for an NFL Long Snapper.

Congratulations to Jon Weeks!

The list goes on with the top ten highest paid Long Snappers all making over $500,000 per year.  Former Rubio Long Snapper and current Houston Texan Jon Weeks made $540,000 in 2012.
