More Proof That Justin Tucker Is a Madman: He Wanted a 72-Yard Attempt

The Ravens kicker tried to convince his coaches to let him attempt a 72-yard field goal at the end of the first half in Thursday’s second preseason game in Miami.

Yes, 72 yards.

The longest field goal in NFL history was from 64 yards and came off the foot of Matt Prater in 2013. It happened in Denver’s thin air, so that helped.

On Thursday night in Miami, Tucker tried to top it by 8 yards. He jogged down the sideline to get in the ear of Special Teams Coordinator Jerry Rosburg and Specialists Coach Randy Brown, but Rosburg shook him off.
