Devin Matthew Lewis Anctil (b. Aug. 28, 1996) is a preferred walk-on from the community-college ranks who will battle for primary punting duties as a junior. He prepped at Olathe High School Northwest.

Anctil played one year at Coffeyville Community College and has two more years to play after redshirting in 2016. He saw action in one game in 2017, serving as the holder on an extra point against Charlotte.

Anctil punted for the Olathe Northwest Ravens under head coach Chip Sherman and earned honorable mention all-league honors. He also played basketball, picking up third-team all-league and honorable mention all-state accolades.

Anctil then played one season for the Coffeyville Ravens under head coach Aaron Flores.

He earned first-team all-region and all-conference honors after averaging 37.59 yards on 46 punts during the 2015 season, including a season-long of 55 yards against both Ellsworth Community College and Hutchinson Community College.

Anctil had a season-high 42.2-yard average on five punts against Independence Community College and also connected on 31 extra points during the season, including a 7-for-7 effort at Ellsworth.

He punted five times in the 2017 spring game for the White team, averaging 38.8 yards with a long of 46, but just one time for 41 yards in the 2018 spring game, again for White.
