Gamecocks in the NFL: Ryan Succop stays automatic, leads league in field goals

For the second time this season, former South Carolina kicker Ryan Succop accounted for every single one of his NFL team’s points in a game on Sunday.

With his Tennessee Titans playing the Buffalo Bills, Succop connected on all four of his field goal attempts, from distances of 25, 54, 39 and 50 yards, boosting his season total to 13 makes on 14 attempts.

Unfortunately for the ex-Gamecock, his effort was not enough as the Bills won on a last-second field goal of their own, 13-12. Still, Succop’s effort was enough to earn him widespread praise on social media, and it also vaulted him into the NFL lead for most field goals on the season, on a day when kickers were front and center for a lot of different reasons.
