Matt Prater wins free beer for city of Detroit

Sunday wasn’t just a historic day for Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater because he set an NFL record for most 50+ yard field goals in a career. He also won free beer for the city of Detroit.

Back in the offseason, Prater challenged Broncos kicker Brandon McManus to a contest. The kicker who finishes the 2020 season with the longest made field goal would win free beer for his team’s city, with a little help from Bud Light.

In Week 10, Prater booted a 59-yard field goal that gave the Lions the win.
