I do understand that the punter has more time than others to focus on the task during practices, as he works with the kicking unit, but if Rehkow is not ideal at being a holder, why not have the backup QB or another player be the holder?
Because then if your starting QB gets hurt your backup QB is now your starting QB... and still the holder but absolutely doesn't have time to practice it anymore and has a lot of other things on his mind.

I think that play right there ended the practice of backup QBs being holders.
