A Kick That Almost Broke the Record

Cam Little, a kicker for the Jacksonville Jaguars, made an incredible 70-yard field goal during a preseason game. This kick was so powerful that it seemed like it would break the NFL record. However, because it happened in a preseason game, it doesn't count. The current record is held by Justin Tucker, who kicked a 66-yarder in 2021.

Reaction and Celebration

Little and his teammates were thrilled after the kick. His holder, Logan Cooke, reacted immediately, and Little celebrated with a jump and a midair bump from rookie Travis Hunter. The kick was so impressive that it cleared the bar by a lot, and the ball boy caught it cleanly.

Little's Background

Little is a sixth-round draft pick from Arkansas. As a rookie, he made 27 of 29 field-goal attempts and all 27 extra points. His previous long was 59 yards, which tied the franchise record. Even though he missed seeing the replay right after the game, his phone was flooded with messages.

Keeping the Ball

Little has decided to keep the ball, even if the Pro Football Hall of Fame asks for it. He said,

"Heck, yeah. Are you kidding me... That ball is staying with me. Canton, Ohio, can get another ball."

Looking Ahead

This kick shows how talented Little is and how he can be a weapon for the Jaguars in crucial moments. Even though it doesn't count for the record, it's a sign of what he can do in the regular season.
