Kickers making field goals at NFL’s worst rate since 2003
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans have a very proud tradition of successful kickers over the past couple of decades ranging from Al Del Greco, Joe Nedney, the late Rob Bironas to now Ryan Succop.
That’s what makes this season so very surprising.
The Titans are on their third different kicker and already have missed eight field goals through 10 games to match the team’s most misses since 2004 when they missed eight, a dubious mark they also had in 2001. They currently rank dead last in the NFL, converting just 46.7 percent (7 of 15).
They’re not alone.
