Larry Robert Seiple, (born February 14, 1945 in Allentown, Pennsylvania), was a punter for the Miami Dolphins of the American Football League from 1967 to 1969, and the NFL's Dolphins from 1970 to 1977. Unlike most punters, Seiple did catch or carry the ball on occasion, his most prolific year being 1969 when he netted 577 yards and scored 5 touchdowns. Seiple was often able to rush for yards instead of punting, a risky play that could give the opponent excellent field position should it fail.
