Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week

kicker Dustin Hopkins missed his first field goal attempt in last week’s victory of the San Francisco 49ers but made a terrific comeback.

He then converted field goals of 29, 42, 46, and 50 yards plus an extra point which became the bulk of the Browns’ offensive scoring. He also had one tackle on a play that just may have been a kickoff return for a touchdown. This success landed him AFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors for his efforts.

He is a perfect 4-4 on field goals of 50-yards or greater having one in four of the five games so far this year.
