Cam Little to Justin Tucker: Full list of longest field goals in NFL history
Cam Little scored a 68-yard goal in the Sunday NFL game of Jacksonville Jaguars versus Las Vegas Raiders, making history.
Cam Little, the placekicker for Jacksonville Jaguars, made history on Sunday during the game against Las Vegas Raiders. The 22-year-old scored a 68-yard goal, the longest in NFL history. At the time of writing, Raiders are ahead of Jaguars 6-3.
NFL shared Little's spectacular sporting achievement, in a clip on X. “CAM LITTLE JUST KICKED THE LONGEST FG IN NFL HISTORY! 68 YARDS!,” they wrote.
Before Little's achievement on Sunday, Justin Tucker held the record for the longest field goal in NFL history at 66 yards, which he scored in 2021.
During a preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Little had scored a 70-yard field goal at the EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida. However, given that pre-season stats are not counted, it didn't go down in the history books at the longest goal in NFL.
