Watch: Ravens K Justin Tucker drills NFL record 66-yard field goal to win game vs. Lions

The Baltimore Ravens know how blessed they are to have Justin Tucker as their kicker. Over his ten-year career, Tucker has kicked multiple game-winning field goals, doing so in thrilling fashion.

In Week 3 against the Detroit Lions after missing a kick from 49 yards earlier in the game, Tucker made field goals from 39 yards, 50 yards, and 52 yards before making a kick that will go down in NFL history forever.

With three seconds left in regulation and trailing by one point, Tucker’s number was called to kick a 66-yard field goal. Time expired off the clock before the football bounced off the center of the upright and into the net.

Tucker’s only miss indoors in his NFL career came in the first quarter on Sunday. After drilling a 66-yard field goal to win the game, it’s safe to assume Tucker forgot the first quarter altogether.

Tucker’s 66-yard kick now stands alone as the longest kick of NFL history, previously beating a 64-yard kick from then-Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater back in 2013. It is a kick that will be remembered forever for multiple reasons.
