Justin Tucker Won't Use Sinkhole As An Excuse
The Ravens kicker missed a fourth-quarter field goal after his foot dug into the soft Levi’s Stadium turf.
Justin Tucker’s missed field goal in the fourth quarter of Sunday gave new meaning to the term “turf monster.”
Tucker’s 45-yard field-goal attempt hit of the right upright after his plant foot dug deep into the soft sod at San Francisco’s Levi’s Stadium, creating a sinkhole and causing him to slip to the ground as he kicked.
“I’ve never experienced anything quite like that,” Tucker said. “My foot just dug so deep into the ground. It really is no excuse though.
