Josh Scobee is Unfazed by New Point After Rules

Josh Scobee is among those few kickers that like a little challenge on something easy.

With the new point after rules coming down from the NFL, Scobee knows that his golden leg just became a lot more valuable. The point after a touchdown, long considered an automatic extra, will now be moved back from the two-yard line to the 15-yard line, making the task a bit more difficult. For a near-automatic kicker like Scobee, this turns the simple point after into a 32 or 33 yard kick. No worries, though, because Scobee’s hit 95.5% of kicks from those ranges since 2004 (the year he entered the league).
