Interesting situation. Long Snappers don't get a lot of wear and tear on their bodies. I would expect Jansen to go about as long as he wants to. He'll probably retire before too long. But seriously, I don't think there is another LS in the league who is better day after day, snap after snap. If I remember correctly Jansen has had ONE (1..) bad snap in the last twelve years. Fletcher was a good snapper. Just bad timing I think. We may bring him back (or not..??) if/when Jansen announces his retirement. Add to that, Fletcher being on IR for half the season last year.... something about a "hip" injury..???
I seriously think (guess..??) that one of our existing centers must have some LS experience in their past. We have three known quantities at Center since Elflein moved over from Guard and we picked up Bozeman. Those two along with Tecklenburg give us a lot of options at Center and Guard.
